Bugs like this should come with some rationale / context too. See https://projects.gentoo.org/qa/policy-guide/installed-files.html#pg0305. If the Meson option covers man pages too, we will have to generate them in a tarball and include them I guess.

My gentoo system is very small, so I pay attention to every package installed. After sys-libs/pam was upgraded to 1.7.0/1.7.1, app-text/docbook-xsl-ns-stylesheets and dev-libs/libxslt are added. If they are critical dependencies, I accepted them. However, upon testing, these dependencies are only for document. Many packages have USE=doc, so I think it's reasonable to add a USE=doc to sys-libs/pam.
Right. We just need to determine if they control man pages. If they do, we must pregenerate a tarball for them.
