man-db 2.8.6.1 (5 August 2019)
Major changes since man-db 2.8.6:
* Fix missing memory copies in ult_src that caused segfaults in
mandb.
Major changes since man-db 2.8.5:
* If more than one of "../man", "man", "../share/man", and
"share/man" exist relative to a directory on $PATH, then all of
them are now added to the automatically-determined manpath;
previously, only the first was considered.
* Remove arbitrary limit on manpath size.
* The systemd database maintenance service now runs mandb with the
--quiet option, avoiding excess log messages.
* Default to --without-systemdsystemunitdir and
--without-systemdtmpfilesdir on non-Linux systems.
* Fix failure to link libman using the Darwin linker.
* "apropos -w" now works when given a non-lower-case pattern.
* Convert most list and hash table code to Gnulib's container types:
these are more flexible and normally more concise than home-grown
equivalents.
* There is a new configure option --disable-manual, which causes the
man-db manual not to be built or installed.
