Normal. The upstream tar maintainer doesn't go to the efforts of creating
one in his tarball, so I don't put forth any additional effort to make one
myself. The GNU Coding Standards recommend the info format ('info tar')
over the man format, and although many GNU packages provide both, there is
no obligation that they must. Also try using 'tar --help'.
