Debian packaging complains about missing manpage.

dh4 commented 9 years ago

Is a manpage really required for Debian? As I understand it, graphical applications with no options that can be passed to them usually don't have manpages.

The manpage would need to be edited slightly. It currently lists the options as if you can pass them to Mupen64Plus-Qt via command line, but those options are only for the Mupen64Plus executable. (i.e. running mupen64plus-qt --fullscreen would do nothing).

Every executable must have a manpage.

sergiobenrocha2 commented 9 years ago

So there aren't any option to pass for it?

dh4 commented 9 years ago

Those options are what the launcher passes when it launches Mupen64Plus in another process. They aren't passed to Mupen64Plus-Qt directly (I should make this clearer in the README).

You can launch a ROM and then run the command ps aux | grep mupen64plus to see what parameters the launcher passed to the Mupen64Plus process.

I'll update it

sergiobenrocha2 commented 9 years ago

Fixed.

Merged. Thanks
