            Bug ID: 26158
           Summary: clang packages don't provide man pages
           Product: Packaging
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P
         Component: deb packages
          Assignee: unassignedbugs at nondot.org

When installing clang-3.8 (or 3.7, or 3.6) I would expect the base package to
bring clang-3.8 man page (perhaps even update-alternatives to bind it to the
name clang)

However, this is not the case:

   ~> dpkg -L clang-3.8 | grep -w man
   /usr/share/man
   /usr/share/man/man1
   /usr/share/man/man1/scan-build-3.8.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/clang-apply-replacements-3.8.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/scan-view-3.8.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/clang-tblgen-3.8.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/pp-trace-3.8.1.gz
   /usr/share/man/man1/clang-check-3.8.1.gz
   /usr/share/clang/scan-build-3.8/man
   /usr/share/clang/scan-build-3.8/man/scan-build-3.8.1
   /usr/share/clang/scan-build-3.8/man/scan-build.1

nothing provides it:

    ~> man -k clang
    clang-apply-replacements-3.8 (1) - manual page for clang-apply-replacements
3.8
    clang-check-3.8 (1)  - manual page for clang-check 3.8
    clang-format-3.8 (1) - manual page for clang-format 3.8
    clang-format-diff-3.8 (1) - manual page for clang-format-diff.py 3.8
    clang-tblgen-3.8 (1) - manual page for clang-tblgen 3.8
    clang-tidy-3.8 (1)   - manual page for clang-tidy 3.8
    FcLangGetCharSet (3) - Get character map for a language
    FcLangNormalize (3)  - Normalize the language string
    FcLangSetAdd (3)     - add a language to a langset
    FcLangSetCompare (3) - compare language sets
    FcLangSetContains (3) - check langset subset relation
    FcLangSetCopy (3)    - copy a langset object
    FcLangSetCreate (3)  - create a langset object
    FcLangSetDel (3)     - delete a language from a langset
    FcLangSetDestroy (3) - destroy a langset object
    FcLangSetEqual (3)   - test for matching langsets
    FcLangSetGetLangs (3) - get the list of languages in the langset
    FcLangSetHash (3)    - return a hash value for a langset
    FcLangSetHasLang (3) - test langset for language support
    FcLangSetSubtract (3) - Subtract langsets
    FcLangSetUnion (3)   - Add langsets
    scan-build-3.8 (1)   - Clang static analyzer
    sclang (1)           - a real time audio synthesis programming language

and unlike clang-3.8-doc, which provides the documentation in html format,
there's also no clang-3.8-man equivalent:
