Hi,

srp_daemon and ibacm are both installed in /usr/sbin. lintian complains
about command-in-sbin-has-manpage-in-incorrect-section:

The command in /sbin or /usr/sbin are system administration commands;
their manpages thus belong in section 8, not section 1.

Please check whether the command is actually useful to non-privileged
user in which case it should be moved to /bin or /usr/bin, or
alternatively the manual page should be moved to section 8 instead,
ie. /usr/share/man/man8.

Refer to the hier(7) manual page for details.

Yes, srp_daemon should only be invoked by systemd, so it should be in
8
