Bug Description

On a vanilla installation, there doesn't seem to be any documentation installed with the `certutil` tool - none of the following commands yield a manual or pointers to where a manual could be found:

man certutil
apropos certutil
info certutil
locate certutil
apt-cache search certutil
certutil -H

The last command provides a verbose parameter reference, but the familiar man page sections with a synopsis, prose description, examples, known bugs, longer option explanations and the like are missing, and there's no pointer to a fuller reference. Googling revealed <https://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/tools/certutil.html>, which looks great, but it would be great to have an offline reference.
