Installing the groff package should do the trick. Here's the info...

Package: groff
Priority: important
Section: text
Installed-Size: 3093
Maintainer: Fabrizio Polacco <fpolacco@debian.org>
Version: 1.10-2
Depends: libc5 (>= 5.4.7-7), libg++27 (>= 2.7.1-3)
Description: GNU troff text-formatting system.
 This package contains the traditional UN*X text formatting tools
 troff, nroff, tbl, eqn and pic. These utilities, together with the
 man package, are essential for displaying the on-line manual pages.

 Output can be produced in a number of formats including plain ASCII
 and PostScript. All the standard macro packages are supported.  A
 number of other utilities are also included together with several fonts.

Of course, you'll need libc5 (>= 5.4.7-7) and libg++27 (>= 2.7.1-3) if
you haven't already got them (which you probably do).

Have fun,
Mark

"Wouldn't the sentence 'I want to put a hyphen between the words Fish
and And and And and Chips in my Fish-And-Chips sign' have been clearer
if quotation marks had been placed before Fish, and between Fish and
and, and and and And, and And and and, and and and And, and And and
and, and and and Chips, as well as after Chips?"
