Details

Description: I can't find any documentation included with this package. Maybe I am not smart enough to find it, that's why I categorized it as "Support Request". If documentation is *really* not available actually, it should be categorized as a "Feature Request". A package without it's documentation is harder to use. I don't ask for a man page, at least, /usr/share/doc/apache-ant/****stuff.html would be great. If help is needed, I am a voluntary.

Additional info:
* package version : Apache Ant(TM) version 1.9.4 compiled on June 14 2014

Steps to reproduce:

$ man ant
No manual entry for ant

I've also searched for a documentation package.

This task depends upon

Documentation does seem to be available in the src tarball, but is not in the package.

There is an AUR package though: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/apache-ant-manual

Yes. My fault, I should have search stronger, only a support request, I appreciate your help.

Still, adding a "-doc" package is a valid request. I will look into it. Please leave this bug report open.
