[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RFE: POPT aliases supplied by rpmpopt should be documented as such, not as options (#512)

[Jeff Johnson]

RPM makes extensive use of POPT aliases: there are easily 2-3 problems solved recently with a POPT alias.

The review process for patch acceptance usually involves a comment/suggestion to update the man page.

Adding a separate "POPT aliases" section to the rpm man page that was populated using a diversion in nroff using the help strings in rpmpopt would automate the doco maintenance and ensure that the man page always agrees with default configuration delivered by rpm.
