man-db (2.5.4-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
    - Exit as soon as possible if database writes return ENOSPC (closes:
      #167159).
    - Make it possible to override man's default of discarding stderr when
      stdout is a terminal (closes: #480996).
    - Reorganise lexgrog to stop on any unrecognised roff request, rather
      than continuing and often littering the database with garbage (closes:
      #271402).
    - Make handling of terminal widths for cat pages configurable (closes:
      #121997).
    - Improve sorting and de-duplication of manual page candidates (closes:
      #389762, #496172).
    - Consider SO_MAN equivalent to ULT_MAN for the purposes of sorting
      candidate pages for display (closes: #384301).
    - Add regular expression and shell wildcard search facilities to man
      (closes: #461319).
    - Add option to disable hyphenation (closes: #166701).
    - Line length is a property of output, not input, so only check whether
      standard output is a terminal, not also standard input (closes:
      #512233).
    - Partially rewrite building of manpath according to locale. The
      previous code was completely wrong: as well as handling duplicates
      rather oddly, it effectively handled LANGUAGE in reverse order
      (closes: #516133).
