[Bug 528020] Re: sk98lin man page should be removed

There is a conflict as soon as a user installs a package that includes
the driver (and man page), such as the one that I maintained in a PPA.
Pretending that the Ubuntu "manpages" package is the only source that
could ever exist for that driver is a bit disingenuous, don't you think?

In any case, I have no idea why anyone would want to continue
distributing an out-of-date man page for a driver that is not even
included in their distribution. To use a car analogy, it's like Honda
shipping with its cars a Toyota manual that contains incorrect
information.
