That's a different story. Reading man pages is not a functional
requirement, depending on the point of view. A system *can* run fine
even without manual pages (and the corresponding reader/formatter)
installed.

But we digress, since this has nothing to do with the original
conversation. Nobody proposed a system without man pages. Meanwhile,
nobody reviewed Antonio's code yet.
