I found manpages 1.48-2 does not include ld.so.8 and ldconfig.8.
It's designated explicitly in manpages-1.48/debian/inst.
Glibc's ld.so.8 and ldconfig.8 is older than manpages', so
I plan to remove both ld.so.8 and ldconfig.8 from glibc package,
then we release glibc, then manpages package should provide
ld.so/ldconfig manpage. Joey, do you think this plan?
ldd.1 is pulled from RedHat's manpages.rpm based on our debian's
man page. It's already commited in our cvs.
