[Pkg-grass-devel] Bug#313307: v.in.ascii.1: IP/br/RS table gone

Package: grass-doc
Version: 6.0.0-1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/lib/grass/man/man1/v.in.ascii.1

On Debian, this part of v.in.ascii.1 disappears upon processing:

  The primitive codes are as follows:
  .RS
  .IP
  'A': area (boundary)...

Proof:
$ g.manual -m v.in.ascii|sed '/are as follows:/,$!d'|od -c|sed 's/[0-9]\+//g;5q'|tr -d \\n;echo
Theprimitivecodesareasfollows:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThecoordinates

It just becomes newlines.
Same if using g.manual or just man(1).

/usr/share/doc/grass-doc/html/v.in.ascii.html is OK.

Also,
   .IP "\fBcolumns\fR=\fIstring\fR
   Columns definition for points mode in SQL style, for example:
   .br
   'x double precision, y double precision, cat int, name varchar(10)'
   .IP "\fBx\fR=\fIinteger\fR

has the example line deleted. Proof:
$ man v.in.ascii|sed '/Columns definition/,$!d'|od -c|sed 's/[0-9]\+//g;6q'|tr -d \\n;echo
Reformatting v.in.ascii(1), please wait...
ColumnsdefinitionforpointsmodeinSQLstyle,forexample:\n\nx\bx=_\bi_\bn_\b

So there is some .IP .br problem.
