Perhaps it would make sense to introduce a Provides:(man-reader) or some
such and add a Requires on the same in the man pages.  That way any of
the things which consume man pages can satisfy the requirement, not
necessarily being man itself.  Seems a little obnoxious, but if the
desire is to prevent a hard man-pages -> man requirement...
