2018-05-03dpkg-divert: Warn when using --add or --remove w/o --rename or --no-renameGuillem Jover1-1/+3
Using --no-rename as the default optimizes for the wrong case, as that's the exception, and while the safest option, it is needed only by packages that are part of the pseudo-Essential set. It's also cumbersome for the --local case. We will emit a warning asking those to be explicit, so that we can switch the default to --rename during the 1.20.x cycle. Prompted-by: Paul Wise <pabs@debian.org>
2018-05-03dpkg-divert: Add new --no-rename optionGuillem Jover1-1/+11
Document its intended usage and how it differs from --rename. This will make it possible to do a behavior switch during the 1.20.x release cycle.

2016-10-30man: Disable hyphenation globallyGuillem Jover1-0/+1
Instead of marking specific words as not hyphenable, depending on the width of the output, which should not be considered stable. Or simply the SEE ALSO section. Just disable hyphenation globally for the whole man page.
2016-10-30man: Switch from groff escape sequences to UTF-8Guillem Jover1-1/+1
This will make writting and translating the man pages easier.
2016-10-30man: Generate the man pages at build timeGuillem Jover1-0/+165
This makes it possible to filter them and update several variable strings such as system and package pathnames, the release date and the dpkg suite version. And will make it possible to use UTF-8 in the source and convert to the more conservative groff escape sequences on the output.
