Bug Description

Hitting tab when the "man" package is not installed results in a "apropos" parsing error. "man" should be added as a dependency.

~> apt-get <tab>
fish: Unknown command ���apropos���
/usr/share/fish/functions/__fish_describe_command.fish (line 6): apropos $argv ^/dev/null | awk -v FS=" +- +" '{
