Hello,

There appears to be a problem with ‘help2man’ and ‘talk’:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
arm -f talk.1 talk.1-t                                          \
        && {                                                    \
                rm -rf tmp;                                     \
                mkdir tmp;                                      \
                (cd tmp && ln -s ../../talk/talk talk);         \
                    /bin/sh

                     --include=./talk.x                 \
                     --output=tmp/talk.1 tmp/talk;                      \
        }                                                       \
        && cp tmp/talk.1 talk.1-t                                       \
        && rm -rf tmp                                           \
        && mv talk.1-t talk.1
help2man: can't get `--help' info from tmp/talk
