#3255: TeX Live 2100722 destroys the "man" executable!

--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
After "make install" the man executable is gone.
$ ls -ld -- /usr/bin/man
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Nov 18 21:32 /usr/bin/man -> ../texmf/doc/man
The culprit is the last part of the install-links target in
texk/texlive/linked_scripts/Makefile.in . This is clearly meant to create
a link to a directory of man pages but because it is still in /usr/bin it
overwrites /usr/bin/man !
I am rating this as a critical bug because actually breaks the system.
