[Pkg-db-devel] Bug#258831: db4.2-doc: incorrect html syntax in docs, makes docs partly unreadable

[Gunter Ohrner]

Package: db4.2-doc
Version: 4.2.52-16
Severity: normal

Hi!

Several HTML files, eg. the files describing the command line utilities,
contain incorrectly nested and closed tags which makes the documentation
only partly readable with browsers like Konqueror.

Example:

<dl compact>
<p><dt><b>-d</b><dd>Dump the specified database in a format helpful for
debugging the Berkeley DB
library routines.
<p><dl compact>
<p><dt>a<dd>Display all information.
<dt>h<dd>Display only page headers.

.... and so on. This causes Konqueror not to display eg. the optiona
names (-d, ...) at all.

Greetings,

  Gunter
