From a terminal...

Thanks for taking your time to report this issue and help making Ubuntu better.

This section is still present in the manpage in valadoc 0.23.2~git20140902-3 on Ubuntu Vivid, and I can confirm valadoc prints a warning when attempting to use it. Furthermore, it looks like --enable-deprecated is an unknown option too.

I saw the corresponding Debian issue had been fixed, and the same version had been synced to the current development version. I've tested with valadoc 0.23.2~git20150422-3 on Ubuntu Xenial and neither "--enable-checking" nor "--enable-deprecated" is present in the manpage. Thus, I believe this issue can be marked as Fix Released.
