Bug#316594: Still need the man pages
reopen 316594
quit
Getting the OpenGL man pages back together as a package, even the older
ones, would still be invaluable. Appears this was due to some licensing
entertainment? Apparently this got fixed? (according to Julien Cristau's
message on #316594)
Looking for information, found two more bugs that amount to this exact
same request, #330755 and #363014.
Seems Ubuntu has inherited this problem:

Yes, the information is readily available online, but typing `man
<glfunction>` gets information substantially faster than having to resort
to a search engine.
I fear an awful lot of programs in Debian (and elsewhere) seem to be
forgetting man pages are *very* handy to have.
