tar(1) manpage from tar-1.23-3 debian package

$ rpm -q tar
tar-1.23-alt5
$ man tar | grep deref
$ tar --help | grep deref
  -h, --dereference          follow symlinks; archive and dump the files they
      --hard-dereference     follow hard links; archive and dump the files they
$ _

Понятно, что manpage там сиротка (в info tar опция --hard-dereference описана), но в том же дебиановском пакете 1.23-3 содержится ман, где она тоже описана. :) (прилагается)
