Title:
  s/send/sent for delsig in manpage

Status in gnupg2 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  To reproduce run man gpg. This manpage is quite long but to press / to
  search the manpage for delsig read the line

    delsig Delete  a  signature.  Note that it is not possible to
  retract a signature, once it has been send to the public (i.e. to a
  keyserver).  In that case you better use revsig.

  
  gpg:
    Installed: 2.2.4-1ubuntu1
    Candidate: 2.2.4-1ubuntu1
    Version table:
   *** 2.2.4-1ubuntu1 500
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages
  Description:    Ubuntu Bionic Beaver (development branch)
  Release:        18.04
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
  I expected to read  delsig Delete  a  signature.  Note that it is not possible to retract a signature, once it has been sent to the public (i.e. to a keyserver).  In that case you better use revsig.

  Instead I read  delsig Delete  a  signature.  Note that it is not
  possible to retract a signature, once it has been send to  public
  (i.e. to a keyserver).  In that case you better use revsig.
