how can I find out the people reponsible for a given man page?
For amstex.1 and other such oddities they are maintained in TL, as far
as I know. If it's not a man page that obviously belongs to a
separately-maintained package (dvipng, texinfo, mkjobtexmf, etc., etc.),
it's a pretty good bet that we are the source for it.
Shall I fix it immediately in TeXLive?
Yes, please do.
You probably know this already, but just to get the info out there, most
man pages exist both somewhere in Build/source as well as
texmf/doc/man. Please update them both. They should be the same
except for the possible @VERSION@ in /source/ being instantiated.
I assume that the PDF files of the man pages are then regenerated
automatically, right?
Right.
Thanks,
k
