Bug#505382: libnss3-tools binaries are missing man pages

Package: libnss3-tools
Version: 3.12.0-5

None of the binaries shipped in libnss3-tools contain man pages.

Debian Policy 12.1 says:

  Each program, utility, and function should have an associated manual
  page included in the same package. It is suggested that all
  configuration files also have a manual page included as well. Manual
  pages for protocols and other auxiliary things are optional.

  If no manual page is available, this is considered as a bug and
  should be reported to the Debian Bug Tracking System (the maintainer
  of the package is allowed to write this bug report themselves, if
  they so desire). Do not close the bug report until a proper man page
  is available.
