I'm not really fluent in docbook, so I can't say what's possible or
impossible. The sentence that refers to the "reference guide" is
already in the current aptitude(8) man page. All I did was move it.
Looking at it again, it's curious that this one sentence says "reference
guide" when all the others say "reference manual". But again, I didn't
write this sentence; it was already there.
Putting "aptitude reference manual" into Google gives me
<https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/aptitude/ch02.en.html> which is
self-titled "Chapter 2. aptitude reference guide". So maybe the one
that says "reference guide" is the correct one, and it's all the rest
that are wrong.
