I wonder if it makes sense to keep arch-dependent man directories at all. I.e., if I prepare an ARM disk image on my amd64 laptop, I really want to have the arm manpages available on that amd64 box. Does anyone see a reason not to move man4/man4.${ARCH}/*.4 to man4? We're talking about 60 manpages here, so space is not really an issue. Chris
