Subject: manpage looks not distributeable, as license not adhered

Package: groff-base
Version: 1.18.1.1-5
Severity: serious

The following manpages say they are only distributeable under
the GFDL, but do not include the license text required by this
license:

troff.1.gz groff.1.gz

This mass-filing of bugs was announced 2005-01-09 in my mail to
debian-devel and debian-legal:
