Package: man-db
Version: 2.8.5-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

man1/man.1.gz manpage should document all enviroment variables it uses.
It includes:

- MAN_DISABLE_SECCOMP=1
- PIPELINE_DEBUG=1

Those are usually only used for debugging, but so is MAN_KEEP_STDERR, which
is correctly documented in man(1) manpage. Having them undocumented/unmentioned 
makes a life much more complicated for casual bug reporter, and sysadmins 
trying 
to troubleshoot apparmor/seccomp related bugs.
