[Pkg-pulseaudio-devel] Bug#558332: pulseaudio: no man page for default.pa(5) --- or rather, man page is misplaced

Package: pulseaudio
Version: 0.9.10-3+lenny1
Severity: normal

The man page for pulse-daemon.conf says that a man page for default.pa
lives in section 5, but this doesn't work:

  : nr at homedog 8608 ; man 5 default.pa
  No manual entry for default.pa in section 5
  : nr at homedog 8614 ; dpkg -L pulseaudio | grep default
  /etc/pulse/default.pa
  /etc/default
  /etc/default/pulseaudio
  /usr/lib/pulse-0.9/modules/module-default-device-restore.so
  /usr/share/man/pa/man5/default.5.gz

I have no idea how I'm supposed to get to the page in
/usr/share/man/pa/man5/default.5.gz.  Perhaps it should be renamed and moved?
