Bug Description

When adding the cloud archive for trusty according to this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/CloudArchive#Kilo i cannot install the ceph package and ceph deploy (which is only in the default repo and not in the cloud archive) then it finds an overlap in man pages

ceph-deploy.8

In upstream ceph the man page has been added in version 0.91 but no man page in upstream ceph-deploy.
So my guess is that the clud-archive should have an updated package for ceph-deploy without the man page or remove the ceph-deploy man page from the ceph package.

Best regards,
William
