The descriptions of the options all show the options as taking one - sign, instead of 2, for example:

   Named Arguments
       -make-iso
              Build a live iso

              Default: False

-make-iso should be --make-iso

Short version of the options show the same problem:

   Named Arguments
       V      show program's version number and exit

V should be -V

Yeah, seems like docutils is the actual problem - https://sourceforge.net/p/docutils/mailman/message/36221658/
I suppose I could post-process the manpages until a fix makes its way into Fedora.

If we're post-processing, sed -E "s/^\.B(\S)/\.B \1/gm would address the problem as I understand it.
