Title:
  The hier(7) man page is incomplete

Status in Manual Pages:
  Fix Committed
Status in manpages package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: manpages

  The hier(7) man page does not contain all root directories that are
  default on ubuntu systems.  This makes the help less useful.  It is
  missing...

  /initrd
  /lost+found
  /media
  /srv
  /sys

  I notice that /media and /srv are described in a later fhs (2.3).
  (http://www.pathname.com/fhs/)  However, I don't see the other three
  missing directories.

  There are, I think, two reasonable solutions.
  1. Rewrite the hier man page to be ubuntu specific.
  2. Update the hier man page to conform with version 2.3 with the addition of the directories that are ubuntu specific.

  Thanks.
