Description Chad Versace 2012-06-08 15:42:49 UTC 
There are 3 ways to reproduce this.

1. On the command line, type `yelp man:systemd.socket`. Yelp incorrectly displays man:socket.

2. As 1, but with `yelp man:systemd.socket(5)`.

3. Open the sytemd manpage with `yelp man:systemd`. That page contains a link to system.socket(5). Click on the link, and yelp incorrectly displays man:socket.
