Subject: Bug#506479: manpages-dev: tries to overwrite /usr/share/man/man3/pthread_attr_setschedpolicy.3.gz from glibc-doc

Just for debian's info: you definitely want the man-pages page.  The
pthreads pages that I have been recently adding to man-pages are far
better than the ancient glibc pages.

It would be nice if I could be informed when a new glibc-doc package
is available so I can re-enable these pages in manpages-dev.

Thanks,

	Joey
