Looking into sarge I found a number of manpages, that do not look redistributeable as they are licensed under the G"F"DL but do not include the full licence text needed to be distributeable. Especially Debian-specific ones seem to be affected due to some templates debhelper contained in the past.
Unless someone disagrees, I'll file bugreports against those packages. ("Missing permissions to be distributeable" is serious even pre-sarge, isn't it?) I) Debian-specific manpages Some packages are listed twice, one time under the author listed in the manpage (as those are the ones that might be able to easily give additional permission under something sane like GPL) and one time under the current maintainer of the package. Sorted by email-address.
