The error may be due to #562518, although I can't reproduce it myself in paer's sid chroot; can you confirm whether you still see it? However, the uninformative error message is very likely a bug in man-db, so I'll take it. -- Colin Watson [[email protected]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
