As they say, i cannot fully reproduce this bug ;-)

If I type 

man imagemagick

I get a perfectly normal-looking man page, which discusses the usual commands ( animate, convert, display etc etc )
There are perfectly adequate man pages for these commands as well, referenced at the bottom...

I'm also using  6.2.3.4-1ubuntu1  

Did you miss the line at the bottom that says:

SEE-ALSO
       convert(1), identify(1), composite(1), montage(1), compare(1), display(1), animate(1), import(1), conjure(1), quantize(5), miff(4)  ?

I agree that the URL for the html docs is incorrect, however :)
It should indeed point to

file://usr/share/doc/imagemagick/index.html
