Comment (by mtredinnick):
Jacob: I was going to shove it under docs/man/ ("man" is more traditional
than "manpages"). I got as far as checking that wouldn't screw up the
automatic docs generation on the website (you were clever there; you put
recurse=False on the filename searching in the docs code :-) ).
We're screwed as far as automatically installing into MANPATH. Python's
distutils doesn't support this for reasons passing all comprehension. So
we'd either have to do it manually -- which is officially hard to get
right for all cases -- or (and this was my preferred path) just install it
under the docs directory and let distros put it into place as part of
their installation scripts (we can fix the rpm generation from bdist_rpm
to do that).
