Hi Jon-

Thanks for the bug report.

I have triaged it against the ctorrent package, rather than the manpage repository, as that's the package that provides the manpage itself.

This manpage is actually generated from SGML source. If you could provide this as a patch, I would be happy to sponsor it into Ubuntu, and pass it back to Debian.

From an Ubuntu system, run:
 $ apt-get source ctorrent
 $ sudo apt-get build-dep ctorrent

And work on ctorrent-1.3.4-dnh3.3.2/debian/ctorrent.sgml

Then, add a new entry in the debian changelog with:
 $ dch -i

Next, build the binary package.
 $ debuild

Then, make sure that the roff page came out correctly.
 $ man -l ./ctorrent.1

Once that looks good, build a source package.
 $ debuild -S

And generate a debdiff:
 $ debdiff > /tmp/293722.debdiff

Once that looks good, attach it here and I can sponsor it for you.

Cheers,
:-Dustin
