man page contains "make" output

Bug Description

Binary package hint: quilt

Run "man quilt". You get

...
QUILT COMMANDS REFERENCE
       make[2]: Entering directory ‘/build/buildd/quilt-0.46’

       add [-P patch] {file} ...
...

The line containing "make[2]" seems to be output from the build process that does not belong here.

Thanks for your bug report.

I can confirm this. The package contains the file «quilt.1.in», where this part of the man page is generated automatically.

Changed in quilt:
importance: Undecided → Low

I tried compiling the source package in Hardy again, that «make[2]» line is added again, so it's some problem with the sources for sure.
