I just installed the latest gnu distribution from jazz (using the
store-to-disk format). Very easy for even the posix challenged.

However, some things seem to be missing from this distribution that were
present when I installed the package to another machine 6 months ago using
the old multi-part distribution. groff does not seem to be a part of this
distribution. I think it was part of the gnutools? Anyway, I believe it is
needed to view certain types of man pages, such as for Stan Sieler's port of
whois and, I think, the Perl man pages.

Am I correct? Do I still need to install the gnutools separately? Do I have
a clue what I'm doing? Or did I screw up somewhere?
