Subject: fdisk missing documentation

Package: miscutils
version: 1.3-1

>From the fdisk manpage:-

|BUGS
|       Although  this  man  page (written by faith@cs.unc.edu) is
|       poor, there is excellent documentation in the README.fdisk
|       file  (written by LeBlanc@mcc.ac.uk) that should always be
|       with the fdisk distribution.  If you cannot find this file
|       in  the  util-linux-* directory or with the fdisk.c source
|       file, then you should write to  the  distributor  of  your
|       version  of fdisk and complain that you do not have all of
|       the available documentation.

There doesn't seem to be a copy of README.fdisk in miscutils.deb.
