Apologies for reopening, you can close it again after that.

Actually, to be fair this is not just usr.bin.man.

As apparmor creep across more and more things it needs to become aware of network filesystems.

What Debian as a whole needs is an extra profile to load

network inet

network inet6

as defaults ONLY if /usr and/or root is on a network filesystem. That is an apparmor bug, not man bug.

Further to this. For documentation purposes: network inet and inet6 needs to added both to the man and groff profiles.

Fixing man results in a similar failure invoking groff. It starts working only after both have been fixed.
