That seems like the right thing to do. Lintian is probably using
something like an test -f /usr/share/man/man1/$binary.1.gz, which
would fail if that was a symlink which was dangling for the package,
but would not be dangling if its deps were installed. Its probably
not worth the bother to file a bug and try to solve this more
generally.
