Bug Description
Somebody please write up some manpages we can install with the suite. I suggest we use docbook to write them and build man pages from them during the package build process.
./README in the branch ~bugsquad/
apt-get source kxmame; cd kxmame-*; less debian/

After figuring out how to get my own bzr branch and playing a little with docbook manual pages, I finally have a working version available in: ~alex.muntada/ bughelper/ bughelper. dev
Could someone review and merge it into main branch?
To produce the bughelper.1 manpage you'll need the docbook2x package and run something like this:
cd debian && docbook2x-man bughelper.1.docbook && man ./bughelper.1
Now, I'd like to know if the bugxml and bugnumbers pages should be kept separately or you think that it's fine to put them in the same file and install them as symlinks (still dunno how to do it, but I'll find if needed).
