Package: man-db
Version: 2.5.1-3
Severity: normal

Hi,

man-db's cron job creates an empty directory structure under
/var/cache/man/X11R6/. As far as I know, the X11R6 subtree is not used
any more in recent versions of Debian, and thus the cron job should
refrain from creating it.

Maybe the cron job can be adapted to only create directories that are
actually used?

Greetings
Marc
