Former versions of man2html uses a static file in /tmp for writing.
This can lead into overwriting system files if a malicious user has
created a symbolic link to it before upgrading man2html.
We recommend you upgrade your man2html package as soon as possible.
wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.
