Description OKUMURA N. Shin-ya 2010-11-03 04:01:33 UTC 
man2html does not convert "aq" macro of groff to a quotation mark (apostrophe).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. bzcat /usr/share/man/man3/printf.3.bz2 | man2html | egrep 'printf.*aq'
Actual Results:  
    printf("%aq.2f", 1234567.89);


Expected Results:  
    printf("%'.2f", 1234567.89);

I guess it might be an upstream bug.

"aq" to apostrophe patch

This ad-hoc patch converts an "aq" macro to "'" (apostrophe).

Comment 3 OKUMURA N. Shin-ya 2010-11-20 05:33:12 UTC 
Sorry, this bug is invalid.
The patch is correct but /usr/bin/man2html belongs sys-apps/man, not app-text/man2html.
Which should I reopen this bug as of sys-apps/man, or post new one?
