Bug#345655: grub: Manual page should inform about grub-doc

Package: grub
Version: 0.97-2
Severity: minor

The man page for grub says:

The full documentation for grub is maintained
as a Texinfo manual.  If the info and grub programs are properly
installed at your site, the command

              info grub 

should give you access to the complete manual.

What it doesn't say is that you have to install
grub-doc before it is on actually your system. 

Yours,
Gerit Jan.
