The man pages are used by npm for npm's own help, so missing them means that npm errors out when run without arguments or as npm help.

Additional info:

Steps to reproduce:
* Install nodejs v0.6.3
* run "npm"

upstream knows about this bug, this is not a packaging issue.

also, afaik, everything in npm works except the man page

Interesting. I built node v0.6.3 from source on my VPS (debian stable, so no packages available), and npm had docs.
Guess I must not have gotten all the traces of the npm v1.0.106 man pages out of there first.
Thanks for checking!

I just pushed 0.6.4-1 which supposedly should fix this, can you test it?
