netfilter buglog - Apr 2020 - [Bug 1416] New: Include a pre-built man page in the distributed tarball

https://bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1416

            Bug ID: 1416
           Summary: Include a pre-built man page in the distributed
                    tarball
           Product: nftables
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86_64
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: nft
          Assignee: pablo at netfilter.org
          Reporter: chutzpah at gentoo.org

Building the man page pulls in some dependencies that have quite a few
dependencies on their own. It would be very nice if this was optional, and
there was a prebuilt man page included in the original tarball that can be
installed.

This can be included via distcheck-hook ?

Would you make a patch for this? Thanks.
