Did note from this error is causing RAOFs ppa
(https://launchpad.net/~raof/+archive/ppa) to fail on build for both
Hardy and Intrepid (apologies for using buntuisms).

Not sure what is going on here because there does appear to be a
Makefile and other stuff in the man sub dir.  Am not enough of a make
guru to work out what is meant to be happening here, looks like the
scripts are trying to build the man file for nouveau, but is
@DRIVER_MAN_SUFFIX@ meant to be 'man' or something else? '4'? ....

Cheers,

Mark
