Hello, 
Given the documentation available, does it seem a border case?
The main functions of dpkg are meant for root. But there are those
available to regular users.
Is there a definitive Debian guide about this? I was unable to find man
page sections at Policy.
If a program is installed at /usr/bin should its man pages be at section
1 regarding of its actions and permissions?
Should only programs executed *exclusively* by root be listed at section
8? [1]
But there are other apt related tools listed at section 8 and with
commands available to regular users.
What is the consistent rule for Debian distro?
Regards.
Andre Felipe Machado
