[PATCH] tack: fix "hyphen-used-as-minus" in manpage


From: Samuel Bronson
Subject: [PATCH] tack: fix "hyphen-used-as-minus" in manpage
Date: Tue, 21 Feb 2012 14:44:33 -0500

The problem that this patch fixes is explained at
<http://lintian.debian.org/tags/hyphen-used-as-minus-sign.html>. It's
not likely to be much of an issue in this particular case (since there
is one dash and three flag letters, so copy/paste isn't all that
likely, and search would already have trouble finding the -t and -V
flags), but at least it will make lintian happy.

(While we're on the subject, is there any particular reason this
manpage declares itself to be in section 1m rather than section 1, or
is it just for hysterical raisins?)

Description: Fix "hyphen-used-as-minus-sign" warning from lintian.
