Yes. Well, at least, maybe, sort of...
As is the case with the other (html) docs, I'm planning on putting a
man tarball into the distribution. Up to now, the easiest way to do
that is to put the tarball into cvs, but I'm open to other
suggestions.
Do I guess correctly that we currently generate our production
releases by actually doing a cvs checkout and then a "mini-build" of
the system to generate the yacc/bison derived files? If so, we could
consider doing the same sort of thing for the html and man products,
but it (probably) makes this packaging process more fragile.
