#49333 make distclean removes man pages
Closed: wontfix 4 years ago by mreynolds. Opened 6 years ago by lkrispen.

if you checkout the src tree and run
autoreconf .fiv
configure .....
make install

everything works fine. But running make distclean does:
rm -rf <my workspace>/389-ds-base/man

and after that you have:

git status
On branch master
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.
Changes not staged for commit:
(use "git add/rm <file>..." to update what will be committed)
(use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)

deleted:    man/man1/cl-dump.1
deleted:    man/man1/dbgen.pl.1
     .....

then next configure &make install will fail with "no rule to make target man/man1/cl-dump.1......

since these files are gone.

The change was introduced by patch #49139
It should probably only remove man/man3
