Unfortunately man renders it this way. It happens only when the terminal width is too narrow otherwise it's fine. |
Description of problem: The man page for yum2dnf lists a set of equivalences for old Yum tools and the new DNF command. The entry for debuginfo-install lists the equivalence as shown here: ┌──────────────────────┬─────────────────────┬─────────────────────┐ │Original Yum tool │ New DNF command │ Package │ ├──────────────────────┼─────────────────────┼─────────────────────┤ │debuginfo-install │ dnf debug‐ │ dnf-plugins-core │ │ │ info-install │ │ ├──────────────────────┼─────────────────────┼─────────────────────┤ You can probably see the problem: this has been hyphenated. The correct DNF version is 'dnf debuginfo-install' (no hyphen between 'debug' and 'info') but the man page makes it look like the command is 'dnf debug-info-install'. I tried running 'dnf debug-info-install' and found the error messages completely unhelpful and inscrutable, and this was mysterious to track down. Please either fix the man page, or make 'dnf debug-info-install' an alias of 'dnf debuginfo-install'. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dnf-1.1.6-2.fc23.noarch Steps to Reproduce: 1. man yum2dnf 2. See the table shown above
