Okay, look, I understand how the introduction of info pages rather than the fixing of man was a really bad idea, and why folks would want to push back. BUT, you know, the average user needs documentation.

So, Debian, having a man page that says that there is no man page, and to use info instead, and then to automatically generate an info-page from the man page is like a WAY stupid idea!

So now there's three or four major system tools that I've discovered have no real documentation, because its all in 'info' pages which have been replaced by stub man pages...
