From 2006, a related BTS thread, thankyougoogle:

Rerunning its code in 2007:
# approximate man page count of my system's debian packages (no
symlinks)
% for f in `dglob | sort`; do b=`dlocate -L $f | grep ".*man/man.*.gz" | while read x ; do file $x | grep
--invert-match '.*symbolic.*' | grep --invert-match directory ; done | wc -l`; [ "$b" ] && [ "$b" -gt 0 ]
&& printf "%6s %s\n" $b $f ; done > /tmp/mancount.txt
# a few minutes later...
% sort -bg /tmp/mancount.txt | tail | tac
687 manpages-dev
611 libx11-dev
491 perl-doc
230 netpbm
146 libsvga1-dev
145 libintl-perl
141 xscreensaver
136 pdl
129 libfontconfig1-dev
128 manpages
Gosh X11 really is big, isn't it ;-). I don't have Debian handy -- it
would be interested to know what's in manpages-dev and manpages.
