"Rajko M."
Removing manpages is a broken concept: They are needed to actually use the programs. Additional documentation may well be moved into another package, but not manpages. That's similar to removing the --help part from the binaries to make them smaller. ...
I can understand that, as I am heavy user of man pages, but there was a pressure to make distro smaller.
Splitting man pages to separate package is even worse than -lang
packages required by base package. No pros.
