Note that you'll need the groff and libc6 packages installed for man-db to install properly. You'll probably also want the manpages package, which contains manual pages "about using a Linux system". If you're in for a joke or two, install the funny-manpages and asr-manpages packages, and then "man rtfm", "man c", "man luser", and so on ;)
