These pages are distributed as part of the act package.  On Debian,
the package that provides these manual pages is 'libacl1-dev'.

        alx@devuan:~$ apt-file find acl_extended_file.3
        libacl1-dev: /usr/share/man/man3/acl_extended_file.3.gz

I think it's better to keep them within the acl project, unless they
want us to take over.


Have a lovely day!
