       The  Debian  project regards the full documentation for autoupdate to be non-free, so it is not included in Debian.  Nevertheless, the non-
       free distribution that accompanies Debian includes the manual in its autoconf-doc package.  Otherwise, you may be able to access the  Auto-
       conf manual online.
