The manual entries [when was the last time you saw one that was only a
page long?] come in NROFF format [see the archives]. In BIND 8.2.3,
they are also there in pre-compiled format. You can just copy them
into your /usr/man/cat? directories. For example,
cd .../bind-8.2.3/doc/man
for i in *.lst[0-9]; do
N=`echo "$i" | sed 's;^.*\.lst\([0-9]\);\1;'`
target=`echo "$i" | sed 's;^\(.*\.\)lst\([0-9]\);\1\2;'`
if [ ! -d /usr/man/cat"$N" ]; then
mkdir /usr/man/cat"$N"
if [ "0" != "$?" -o ! -d /usr/man/cat"$N" ]; then
echo "Couldn't create /usr/man/cat$N"
continue
fi
fi
cp "$i" /usr/man/cat"$N"/"$target"
done
