With bin/51062, makemandb(8) can index non-numeric sections and also
apropos(1) can now accept non-numeric sections for querying. That
means you do queries like
apropos -s 9lua systm
apropos -s n foo bar
To be able to use this feature, you need to regenerate the database.
You can do this by running makemandb -f manually.
I rebuilt my database. Although apropos(1) now finds the information
for the non-numeric sections, it is still reporting them wrongly:
# apropos -s 9lua lua
intro (9) introduction to the Lua kernel bindings
This section provides an overview of the Lua kernel bindings, ...
Note that the output says "intro (9)" - shouldn't it say "intro (9lua)"?
