Hi,

According to README.Debian:

Some pages present in the upstream version were removed because a better
version exists in other package.  These pages are:
[...]
 manpages-dev:
        modules.2, get_kernel_syms.2, create_module.2,
        init_module.2, delete_module.2

According to changelog.Debian.gz, those "better" pages were provided by
modutils. However, modutils was removed a while ago, since it is superseded by
module-init-tools which do not provide those manpages.

So, I suggest that the above manpages be reintroduced in manpages-dev.

Thanks,
Manuel.
