On Wed, 22 Dec 2010, Jürgen Vollmer submitted an update to the

  latex2man

package.

License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Latex2man is a tool to translate UNIX manual pages written
with LaTeX into the troff format understood by the UNIX
man(1)-command.
Alternatively HTML, TexInfo, or LaTeX code can be produced too.
Output of parts of the text may be supressed using the
conditional text
feature (for this, LaTeX generation may be used).

There is LaTeX package (latex2man.sty) used for writing the
Man-page
and a PERL script (latex2man) doing the actual translation.

Changes from version 1.23:
  add CSS support for HTML generation
