Why are you filing bugs about this?  There are already various
ways to see this, including things like lintian.

Anyway, I do not intend to provide manpages for them.  Upstream
is also doesn't care about documenting them.

Most of the applications exists with the the "eu-" part as part
of binutils where they do have a manpage.  They mostly be
compatible.

- the bug exists,
- the bug bothers me,
in hope that:
- the bug will be eventually fixed,
- I will be notified when it's fixed.

Thanks for information (although the "mostly" word is still bothering),
but I would really prefer to learn such things from documentation rather
than from a bug report.
