Package: libwrap0
Version: 7.6.q-19
Severity: normal
Tags: squeeze

The man pages for hosts_access and friends are referenced from the
README.Debian but are not contained in the libwrap0 package. I finally
found them in the tcpd package which was not installed. As tcp wrappers
are frequently used by linking instead of through tcpd I think it'd be
best to put them in libwrap0.

Note that this only seems to apply to squeeze as they are in libwrap0 in
sid. Also, tcpd is "Priority: standard" so you could argue this shouldn't
be a bug at all. That being said it took me longer than I care to admit
to find the man pages so I thought it was worth a bug report even if
it's just to help others figure out where they are.

Thanks!
