Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: iceauth

Sorry, I'm not sure if this is a bug or what...

The manpage for iceauth has nearly nothing in it, from at least Dapper to 
Lucid, according to manpages.ubuntu.com and also checking on my PC it is the 
same.
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/en/man1/iceauth.1.html

Having an error message mentioning .ICEauthority, I tried to run
"iceauth" and eventually got a timeout. I didn't dare use it again with
random options...because, well, I still have no idea how to use it. It
seems the manpage doesn't know either.

Thanks for taking the time helping us users! Have a great day! ^^/

To save you the typing/clicking trip, here is ALL of it:

NAME

       iceauth - ICE authority file utility


SYNOPSIS

       iceauth [ -f authfile ] [ -vqib ] [ command arg ... ]


DESCRIPTION

       The  iceauth  program  is  used  to  edit and display the authorization
       information used in connecting with ICE.  This program is usually  used
       to  extract authorization records from one machine and merge them in on
       another (as is the case when using remote logins or granting access  to
       other users).  Commands (described below) may be entered interactively,
       on the iceauth command line, or in scripts.
