--- Comment #5 from Ruud van der Pas <ruud.vanderpas at oracle dot com> ---
To further clarify this patch, we now use special controls in the gprofng.texi
user guide file to generate the gprofng.1 man page. This eliminates the
dependence on help2man to create this page.

The other four man pages still rely on help2man, but in case help2man has not
been installed, this step will be skipped. So no more creation of empty files.

In the next step to resolve this issue, we plan to provide separate Texinfo
files for the 4 tools and remove the usage of help2man from the gprofng build
and installation process.
