NAME
debman - read man pages from uninstalled packages
SYNOPSIS
debman -f filename [-- man(1) options] name
debman -p package [-- man(1) options] name
DESCRIPTION
debman extracts a Debian package into a temporary directory and
displays manual pages from it. If the -f option is used, it will use a
local .deb file; if the -p option is used, it will download the named
package using debget.
ENVIRONMENT
debman intentionally ignores any $MANPATH environment variable that
might be set, and constructs its own such that only manual pages within
the package will be displayed.
