No man pages are installed

[Michael Terry]

=== SRU Justification ===

Impact: The executables in the 'ofx' package don't have man pages, making it harder to use them. This isn't such a big deal, but since Benoit and I was prepping 0.9.4 for other SRUs, I figured I'd throw this bug fix in.

Fixed upstream in 0.9.4.

To reproduce:
 1. $ sudo apt-get install ofx
 2. man ofxconnect
 3. man ofxdump

Patch:
Because Ubuntu only has 0.9.0 but upstream has released four bugfix releases (up to 0.9.4) that address this and other outstanding issues and Debian hasn't been responsive for years, it is felt that just updating to 0.9.4 is best. I've attached https://launchpadlibrarian.net/70440554/libofx.debian.diff which is just the debian/ changes for such an update.

If this is considered too intrusive, this particular change can be dropped.

See also bug 769554 and bug 661809, fixed by this same update.

Testing:
1:0.9.4-0ubuntu0.1 has been pushed to natty-proposed. Please test and verify the fix here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification

=========================

There are no man pages for the executables in the package 'ofx'. There should be!

Accepted libofx into natty-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!

Indeed ofx 1:0.9.4-0ubuntu0.1/natty-proposed shows man pages. But the contents is not appropriate.
It shows like this:
-----
SYNOPSIS
       libofx [OPTIONS]... [FILES]...
-----
In this part, ofxconnect or ofxdump should be used instead of libofx, because there is no libofx command.

Note: `ofxconnect --help` and `ofxdump --help` also shows the same line "Usage: libofx [OPTIONS]... [FILES]..."

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

As the proposed package improves the situation, I'll mark this verification-done. I'll reopen this after it went to -updates, for the remaining issue.
