Man roff : 
The dummy character escape sequence \& can be used after an end-of-sentence
character to defeat end-of-sentence detection on a per-instance basis.
et
A request is an instruction to the formatter that occurs after a control
character, which is recognized at the beginning of an input line. The regular
control character is a dot “.”. Its counterpart, the no-break control
character, a neutral apostrophe “'”, suppresses the break implied by some
requests. These characters were chosen because it is uncommon for lines of text
in natural languages to begin with them. If you require a formatted period or
apostrophe (closing single quotation mark) where the formatter is expecting a
control character, prefix the dot or neutral apostrophe with the dummy
character escape sequence, “\&”.

Ces séquences d’échappement sont présentes ou non dans les pages de manuel.
Elles me semblent peu importantes pour les pages de manuel de Debian.


Amicalement
