Package: manpages-dev Version: 5.10-1 Hello!
I spotted on Salsa-CI runs that when a Stretch system with manpages 4.10 tries to upgrade to Sid, it fails due to conflict with manpages-dev 5.10. There should probably be some conflicts/breaks defined in manpages-dev on manpages. This is visible on a CI system where every step is reproducible and runs off clean Docker images, so this is not a sporadic error.
