Hmmm, rereading this it may have sounded very different than my original intention and entirely wrong. `Evil' was meant to have a joking-style meaning here. Wojciech is right on the spot when he says that it's annoying as hell to see manpages which merely point to an Info page. Especially when that info pages are in a different package, which isn't installed by default... ``doh!'' :)
