Subject: bugs in the FILTER EXPRESSIONS section of the gpg man page

Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2019 18:42:28 +0100

Package: gpg
Version: 2.2.12-1+deb10u1
Severity: minor
Tags: upstream

Hi!

I'm trying to use --import-filter with gpg. the man page directs me to
the FILTER EXPRESSIONS section for more details. The examples there
use the text:

                 --import-option keep-uid="uid =~ Alfa"
                 --import-option keep-uid="&& uid !~ Test"
                 --import-option keep-uid="|| uid =~ Alpha"
                 --import-option keep-uid="uid !~ Test"

which clearly should be 

                 --import-filter keep-uid="uid =~ Alfa"
                 --import-filter keep-uid="&& uid !~ Test"
                 --import-filter keep-uid="|| uid =~ Alpha"
                 --import-filter keep-uid="uid !~ Test"

Looks like a simple cut and paste / completion error.
