Well, there is no manpage for most important executable of this package,
namly avfsd. It takes some time to know that it is needed at all
and how to start it.

Dear Reporter, Maintainer.

AVFS never had a manpage. There is plenty of documentation for packager and
user. You would refer to the file

/usr/share/doc/avfs/README.avfs-fuse and
/usr/share/doc/avfs/README.gz

the file /usr/bin/avfsd takes no options and is loaded as a daemon.
Files/devices are accessed as

ls $HOME/.avfs/$PWD/file.gz#
for example.

Maybe report the request upstream. But for most, the READMEs (which I
contributed to) should be fine.

Would suggest closing this bug as WONTFIX since it is an upstream request,
not anything Debian can/should fix.
