The changelog says:

,----
| Sun Mar 28 13:14:45 CEST 2004
|  [...]
|  * clean up texk/tetex/Makefile for manpage symlinks (initex, virtex
|    etc. are no longer installed, so we don't need manpages for this).
`----

But it doesn't say why these symlinks are no longer provided.  I also
couldn't find anything in the release notes.  Can you refer us to some
explanation? 

Thanks in advance,
Frank
