Yeah, applications *should* have manual pages, but it's not required. If
you need more tooling to build the manpage, it can wait until those
tools are available in Debian.

I'd ignore those.

So, technically, xdoctest could be split into an xdoctest binary package
(the command) and python3-xdoctest (the library). Personally, I don't
bother to do that for niche tools like this. If it was a more
user-oriented package, then it could make more sense to split it.
