This bug was fixed in the package man-db - 2.5.8-1
---------------
man-db (2.5.8-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New upstream release:
- Explicitly set groff's hyphenation language, to ensure that it only
hyphenates languages it knows about (closes: #570247).
- Add support for XZ-compressed manual pages, thanks to Darren Salt
(closes: #572233).
- Try underscore-separated subpages as well as hyphen-separated ones,
thanks to Tanguy Ortolo (closes: #574641).
- Build libman and libmandb as shared libraries, considerably reducing
executable size.
- Warnings about unrecognised locales are now suppressed if the
DPKG_RUNNING_VERSION environment variable is set (i.e. man-db is
running within a Debian package's maintainer script), since the system
locales are often out of sync with the C library in that context.
Thanks to the Debian Perl maintainers for the idea.
- In catman mode, never try to guess whether a page argument is a
section, as it's too easy to get this wrong (LP: #664211).
- mandb should no longer repeatedly rescan manual page hierarchies when
a whatis entry turns into a broken link.
* Use a separate build directory, eliminating the requirement to preserve
some files by hand.
* Build with external libpipeline.
