This is an intentional change in our distribution process in v17
and later: the tarballs are now just images of our git repo,
without any derived files.

Not unless you built them locally.  They are certainly not in
my copy of that tarball:

$ tar tvfj postgresql-17.8.tar.bz2 | grep /man
-rw-rw-r-- root/root     23923 2026-02-09 16:51 postgresql-17.8/doc/src/sgml/manage-ag.sgml
