The flashrom(8) revision currently in trunk fails HTML conversion:

It seems that the regression is due to r1437 [1], as r1412 [2] renders without an error.

hello ivan and thanks for the detailed analysis. afaics this is a bug in the groff version used. it seems it cant cope with this line: .BR "http://www.xilinx.com/itp/xilinx4/data/docs/pac/appendixb.html " . although a very similar one is working correctly just 2 lines above it and the version of groff on my desktop works too. i dont have access to the server so i cant investigate further than you. from flashrom's point of view this is a WONTFIX imo, but i have CCed stefan reinauer, which administers the server and might be able to look into it. stefan: can groff be updated on that machine? i guess that would be the easiest solution...
