Package: www.debian.org Severity: wishlist
It would be useful for Debian users if man pages for software in the Debian archives were available through the website. This could be automated to make sure that not only the manpages, but the correct versions of the manpages, were available to Debian users. Currently, finding a manpage for a non-installed package is a fairly haphazard affair involving lots of Googling, and having a central repository would be very handy since installing a package just to read a manpage is time-consuming. It would also be good if there could be an interface to these manpages via packages.debian.org - when viewing information on a particular version of a package, it could have links to the manpages within the package along with the existing links to the Changelog etc. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.6-halcyon Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C
