Hm. The problem with manyfoot is that it is no package of its own, but
rather part of the ncctools bundle in collection-latexextra. When I
have a look at the Catalogue entry for ncctools I don't think it makes
much sense to include the whole ncctools bundle in
collection-humanities because most packages don't have anything to do
with critical-edition typesetting or with the humanities.

Could we (or should we) make manyfoot a package of its own for
installation in collection-humanities?

Thanks,
Jürgen.
