Upstream didn't provide one in 1.4.7.  They did in 1.4.8, so the current
version of the package in jaunty should have it.

Agreed.  (Although for the record, you never want to use vos clone unless
you know exactly what you're doing.  It's a command for AFS experts and
not something to use in normal operation of a cell.)

[Bug 324449] [NEW] openafs doesn't include vos_clone manpage

[Kevin Sumner]

Public bug reported:

A man page for vos_clone(1) isn't included in the current debs for
Intrepid, even though it is referenced by (at least) the vos_copy(1) man
page that is included in the openafs-client package.

lsb_release -rd:
Description:Ubuntu 8.10
Release:8.10

Being that vos clone and vos copy are confusingly similar commands and
AFS's internal documentation via vos help isn't very descriptive, a man
page for vos clone would be helpful in differentiating between the two.
