Hi,

Debian has a policy that all the commands should have man pages as part
of their review process. Unfortunately they don't seem to be sending it
upstream. If you are a package maintainer for some application, that is
missing a man page, it might be a good to look into the Debian sources
for man page patches, add them to your package and send it upstream as
well. Note that upstream might require you to clean up the man page in
the process.
