  Additional remarks.

  Mails from me to "submit@bugs.debian.org" are no longer acknowledged.  A
Debian maintainer told me, that he would contact the mail administrator
about me not wanting to send bugs upstream.

-.-

>From "/usr/share/doc/debian/bug-reporting.txt.gz":

  Don't file bugs upstream

   If you file a bug in Debian, don't send a copy to the upstream software
   maintainers yourself, as it is possible that the bug exists only in
   Debian. If necessary, the maintainer of the package will forward the
   bug upstream.

-.-

  For forwarding bug reports to upstream see:

https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#forward

-.-

  I do not send reports upstream if I have to get an account there.
The Debian maintainers have one already.

  If I get a negative (or no) response from upstream, I send henceforth
bugs to Debian.

Subject: kernel-img.conf.5: warning from "lint"

Package: linux-base
Version: 4.15
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

  Looking at the links/lintian part of the home page of the package
"linux-base" and seeing this:

tbl preprocessor failed, or it or soelim was not run; table(s) likely not rendered (TE macro called with TW register undefined)

-.-

  Reproduced with

groff -mandoc -ww -z kernel-img.conf.5:

an.tmac:kernel-img.conf.5.new:47: warning: tbl preprocessor failed, or it or soelim was not run; table(s) likely not rendered (TE macro called with TW register undefined)

-.-

  The test with "nroff" or "groff" must include the option '-t' for the
preprocessor 'tbl'.

  The command "man" (package "man-db") uses the option '-t' for nroff and
groff by default.
