Are we providing packages that include only Info manuals, which
document stuff that is not specific to Emacs?  Because I don't see how
it would be a good idea to have this as an ELPA package.

But if we do accept such packages on ELPA, then I have 2 additional
similar suggestions:

  . Git manual in Info format
  . Python 3 manual in Info format

That'd be wrong, since this manual doesn't describe GNU C, it
describes the C language in general.  (There's a separate GNU C
manual, btw.)
