One would need to filter man-pages too, right?
+ (define interested
+    (eval-gexp
+     #~(filter
+        (lambda (input)
+          (or (file-exists? (string-append input "/share/info"))
+              (file-exists? (string-append input "/share/man"))))
+        '#$(manifest-inputs manifest))))
