Title:
  man page split.1.gz is garbled in part

Status in “coreutils” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  the man page for split(1), included in the coreutils package, has a
  section that seems to have been mangled, possibly in translation from
  info.  This section begins with "CHUNKS  may be: N" and extends to the
  following "AUTHORS" section.  What should be a list is all strung out
  on one line and difficult to decipher.
