Ah, thank you so much for quick response. I'll look into manpages-dev and potentially file an issue there instead.

Hi Sebastian.

In fact, erlang-mode just contains a link /usr/lib/erlang/man -> /usr/share/man, so I guess your script just tries to copy all manpages to the container. And it breaks if it can't dereference a link. I'm not sure I can do anything about it. But you're welcome to submit bugs to the packages with these symlinks (/usr/share/man/man3/LIST_EMPTY.3 is in manpages-dev for example).
