I made jgroff_1.15-3.1.deb based on groff-1.15.
You can get from:

deb http://www2.fe.dis.titech.ac.jp/~gotom/debian/ ./

I'm waiting to become Debian Maintainer, so I can't do NMU.
Are there anyone who upload these .deb packages instead of me?


P.S. I guess jgroff and groff are possibility merge-able.
