Dear Maintainer,

In the comments of /etc/nsswitch.conf, the following text is listed:

# Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality.
# If you have the `glibc-doc' and `info' packages installed, try:
# `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file.

However, running the specified command gives information about libcdio,
the GNU CD Input, Output, and Control Library, instead of the expected
information about the GNU C Library.

I do have the two packages (glibc-doc and info) listed.  

However, after installing the glibc-doc-reference package, the command
produced the correct documentation.  Therefore, I propose that the
/etc/nsswitch.conf comments be updated to include glibc-doc-reference
instead of glibc-doc.
