'man ls' has no mention of "obsolete" on my newly installed slackware-3.6,
also doing a zgrep of /usr/man/man8 it shows that 11 files have the word
"obsolete" not one says, this page is obsolete.

Altho' some might be obsolete, most are old and need to be looked at, that i
think we could all agree on.

There is also the "info" command 'info <command>' which shows more
information than just a manpage when available.
