$ mandoc -Tascii /usr/share/man/man1/pkg_create.1 | col -b | \
sed -n '/^[[:blank:]]*@wantlib/,/^$/p'
@wantlib libspec
Package needs a shared library to work. libspec is
`name.major.minor' or `path/name.major.minor'. The package won't
be installed unless a library with the same name, the exact same
major number and at least the same minor number can be located.
A library without path is searched through dependent packages
under the same localbase, then in the system libraries under
/usr/lib and /usr/X11R6/lib. A library with a path is only
searched through dependent packages, that path being relative to
localbase.
