Comment (by ken):

 OK. there was a small issue with the man-db testsuite (see an LFS ticket
 if you care) - the maintainer has fixed it and '''all''' the alphabetic
 pages I can find to test it with render well on a UTF-8 terminal, whether
 they are in UTF-8 or legacy encodings (no need for separate directories
 for different character sets, provided the pages are in the expected
 encoding or UTF-8.  The pages for script languages look good, but I can't
 make a comment on whether they are "correct".

 The only additional dependency is gdbm.  At the moment, I haven't worked
 out where that should fit in the build order.

 For my own builds I'm replacing man-1.6f by man-db.

 Just out of interest, how did dhcpcd and xz-utils get past the "no new
 packages" rule ?
