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.
