Description: 
 man-db     - on-line manual pager

Changes: 
 man-db (2.5.4-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream release.
     - Exit as soon as possible if database writes return ENOSPC (closes:
       #167159).
     - Make it possible to override man's default of discarding stderr when
       stdout is a terminal (closes: #480996).
     - Reorganise lexgrog to stop on any unrecognised roff request, rather
       than continuing and often littering the database with garbage (closes:
       #271402).
     - Make handling of terminal widths for cat pages configurable (closes:
       #121997).
     - Improve sorting and de-duplication of manual page candidates (closes:
       #389762, #496172).
     - Consider SO_MAN equivalent to ULT_MAN for the purposes of sorting
       candidate pages for display (closes: #384301).
     - Add regular expression and shell wildcard search facilities to man
       (closes: #461319).
     - Add option to disable hyphenation (closes: #166701).
     - Line length is a property of output, not input, so only check whether
       standard output is a terminal, not also standard input (closes:
       #512233).
     - Partially rewrite building of manpath according to locale. The
       previous code was completely wrong: as well as handling duplicates
       rather oddly, it effectively handled LANGUAGE in reverse order
       (closes: #516133).
 .
 man-db (2.5.3-3) experimental; urgency=low
 .
   * Backport from trunk:
     - Update manual page search order to permit FHS-compliant installation
       of packages in /opt. Reported by Matt Domsch.
 .
 man-db (2.5.3-2) experimental; urgency=low
 .
   * Explicitly configure --with-lzma=lzma.
   * Increase versioned dependency on groff-base to (>= 1.18.1.1-15) for a
     working -w option in nroff (closes: #494287).
 .
 man-db (2.5.3-1) experimental; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream release.
     - Cleaned up a number of possible crashes, memory leaks, and missing
       error checks found by the Coverity Scan project.
     - The LANGUAGE environment variable is now tokenised properly, rather
       than only taking the first two characters of each element.
     - man now correctly propagates the exit code of whatis or apropos when
       called with the -f or -k option respectively (closes: #477305).
     - Fix several manual page synopsis problems (thanks, Yuri Kozlov;
       closes: #480678, #481226, #482424, #482791, #482792, #482810, #483589,
       #483862, #483951).
     - Reduce the number of warnings emitted when using an unrecognised
       locale (closes: #494989).
     - manconv and zsoelim are now called internally rather than by executing
       external programs, to improve performance.
     - Manual pages may now be compressed with LZMA (although this is
       probably only worth it for very large pages).
     - Duplicate manual page hierarchies due to symlinks (e.g. /usr/man ->
       /usr/share/man) are detected and removed from the search order.
     - A locale modifier (e.g. @latin) in a directory name must now match the
       locale if the former is set, in addition to the language and
       territory.
     - Bare .so includes (e.g. ".so foo.1" rather than ".so man1/foo.1") now
       work, although only within the same manual page hierarchy for now
       (partially fixes #503472).
   * Add Homepage field.
   * Policy version 3.8.0: no changes required.
   * Pass CFLAGS and LDFLAGS to configure rather than make so that we don't
     have to keep up with the set of warnings that configure decides to
     enable.
