It seems that the texinfo manual was removed, but no extra non-free package was 
added (at 
least I could not find one).
Since the info manual is a crucial component of the bash documentation, perhaps 
it would
be more appropriate to move the whole bash-doc package to non-free.
 
Whatever the decision, please consider packaging the manual asap - either by 
resectioning 
bash-doc or by adding a new package (bash-doc-extra? bash-doc-gfdl?), as many 
users
might feel crippled without it.
