2006-11-06 12:17:03 Peter Berry description All of the postgres commands have manual pages, but they don't seem to have whatis entries, so you can't see what commands there are by doing "apropos postgres". After installing a package containing manpages, you have to wait for cron to update the man db before you can use the new whatis entries (e.g. with apropos). The package's install script should do this itself so you can use them immediately.
2006-11-06 12:17:03 Peter Berry title missing whatis entries man-db should be updated when installing new manpages
2006-11-06 12:19:44 Peter Berry postgresql-8.1: statusexplanation changed description and source package. This is really a bug in all packages that install manpages.

2007-05-25 15:46:54 Colin Watson man-db: statusexplanation changed description and source package. This is really a bug in all packages that install manpages. This can only sensibly be done once we have triggers support in dpkg (see the dpkg-triggers specification).
