Hmm, I don't see that here. That is, after the final C-x o, the manpage buffer continues to show the ls "SEE ALSO" section. I wonder if "something else" could be interfering. If it's easy, I suppose you might try creating a new user account, and see if still happens there too. And you could probably eliminate more variables by testing in a minimal debian VM, particularly if you also see the problem via the console (i.e. emacs -nw). One option: $ mkdir test-emacs $ cd test-emacs $ vagrant init debian/testing64 $ vagrant up $ vagrant ssh $ sudo -i # apt install emacs ... test # shutdown -h now $ vagrant destroy $ cd .. $ rm -rf test-emacs For reference, I ran emacs from a terminal from within sway. Oh wait, do you have emacs-gtk or emacs-lucid installed? I only use the latter[1], so maybe that matters, if you're using the former...
