### Please describe the problem.
The git-annex manual page is not installed when using [[install/cabal]] to install git-annex.
### What steps will reproduce the problem?
Follow [[install/cabal]] with `--bin-dir=/usr/local` and try `man git-annex`.
I was expecting the manpage to be installed in `/usr/local/share/man`.
### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
git annex from a recent git build (4.20130909-g7f079d6) in Debian wheezy.
### Please provide any additional information below.
<del>This could be just a documentation problem...</del> Actually, the manpage can be read directly from the source tree in `doc/git-annex.mdwn`, but I still think it should be installed, for [[!wikipedia POLA]]'s sake. --[[anarcat]]
I figured it out - that stuff is in the makefile, I updated [[install/cabal]] accordingly, so done. --[[anarcat]]
