Description Samuel Thibault 2007-09-19 22:12:12 UTC 
When generating manual pages, the SYNOPSIS head is only emitted for structure documentation. Functions, etc. don't get that head, while they should. That poses problem with whatis databases & such which include the whole NAME section (which as a results contains the synopsis as well...).
Comment 1 Dimitri van Heesch 2007-09-22 16:46:19 UTC 
Can you please attach a example (zip with source code + config file) that allows me to generate a man page without SYNOPSIS?

As discussed in https://github.com/doxygen/doxygen/pull/734 , Doxygen has moved its issue tracking to 

   https://github.com/doxygen/doxygen/issues

All Doxygen tickets in GNOME Bugzilla have been migrated to Github. You can subscribe and participate in the new ticket in Github. You can find the corresponding Github ticket by searching for its Bugzilla ID (number) in Github.

Hence I am closing this GNOME Bugzilla ticket.
Please use the corresponding ticket in Github instead. Thanks a lot!
