Description Tom Fredrik Klaussen 2009-06-16 14:38:48 UTC 
I am one of the maintainers of the Coin3D visualization library.

We have gotten a report from Debian maintainer Steve M. Robbins, which reads

<quote>
A Debian user reported the following bug. Basically, the issue is 
that Coin generates a manpage "deprecated.3", which is also used by 
another package. 

This name is quite generic; would it be possible to generate 
something like "CoinDeprecated", or the like?

It would be really nice to be able to have two options available.

1. The option to prefix all manpages generated with some common prefix, eg. Coin.
2. The option to prefix generic pages like "deprecated" with a prefix.

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!
