However, since that time, those pages have not + seen much maintenance, and are not in fact distributed in most + distributions. Instead most distributions supply the + coreutils versions of these pages, which are currently + maintained. In addition, man-pages provides the 1p pages, + which document the portable subset of functionality of these + commands. Since the man1 pages are mostly unneeded, and + out of date, I'm removing them.
