Description:
The shuffle package doesn't come with man pages.

Additional info:
The current version of shuffle (1.5-2) in the repos doesn't come with man pages. I don't know the first thing about compiling manpages, but clicking through the link on the package page shows that upstream has a troff file for it, at least according to 'file shuffle.1'

Steps to reproduce:
# pacman -S shuffle
$ man shuffle
No manual entry for shuffle

Created a patch to include the man page in the PKGBUILD. See attached.

I had to work around gzip having trouble with the symlinks created in the srcdir. I'm not sure how elegant my solution is, but it works.

Er, I suppose I should have bumped the build version as well. See attached.
