[Bug 1992163] Re: [BPO] man-db/2.10.2-1 from jammy

[Mattia Rizzolo]

We have discussed this in the last Backporters meeting, and we decided
not to accept this, as a simple performance bug, which is not what the
backport pocket is intended for (that's more about new features).

** Also affects: man-db (Ubuntu Focal)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Changed in: man-db (Ubuntu Focal)
       Status: New => Won't Fix

** Changed in: man-db (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Fix Released
