Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: rxvt-unicode

`man rxvt-unicode` produces "Manual page rxvt-unicode(1) line ?/? (END)"
and nothing else.

The same is true for all manpages allegedly provided by the package
except `man urxvtcd`.

A small amount of investigation reveals the following:

% dpkg -L rxvt-unicode | grep man | grep 'gz$' | xargs ls -lh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  10 2007-09-21 18:45 
/usr/share/man/man1/rxvt-unicode.1.gz -> urxvt.1.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  28 2007-08-10 13:47 /usr/share/man/man1/urxvt.1.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  29 2007-08-10 13:47 /usr/share/man/man1/urxvtc.1.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 379 2007-08-10 13:47 /usr/share/man/man1/urxvtcd.1.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  29 2007-08-10 13:47 /usr/share/man/man1/urxvtd.1.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  32 2007-08-10 13:47 /usr/share/man/man3/urxvtperl.3.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  28 2007-08-10 13:47 /usr/share/man/man7/urxvt.7.gz

zcatting the very small files produces no bytes of data.

This is with Gusty's version of rxvt-unicode, specifically 8.3-1.
