Public bug reported:
The rust-dd(1) manpage looks like it was incompletely converted from
Markdown, with sections containing markdown headings (e.g. `###
Operands`), and markdown code blocks (e.g. ```plain), and markdown lists
all concatenated into a single line:
--- excerpt from `man dd`
### General Flags
- direct : use direct I/O for data. - directory : fail unless the given input (if
used as an iflag) or
output (if used as an oflag) is a directory. - dsync : use synchronized I/O for
data. - sync : use synchronized I/O for data and metadata. - nonblock : use
non-blocking I/O. - noatime : do not update access time. - nocache : request
that OS drop cache. - noctty : do not assign a controlling tty. - nofollow : do
not follow system links.
VERSION
v(uutils coreutils) 0.2.2
