Description Nico R. 2008-02-26 12:36:54 UTC 
media-libs/libquicktime-1.0.1 does not install any man pages for its binaries, except lqtplay. This makes it difficult to use the programs without having looked at the source. Even though the programs do have minimalistic usage messages, man pages would be more convenient.

Sorry to disappoint you but we certainly won't be writing any manpages for this; if you want them, get them written and bundled upstream.
