man-db 2.6.2 (18 June 2012)
===========================

Major changes since man-db 2.6.1:

	Fixes:
	------

	o apropos prints an error message and returns non-zero when it finds
	  no matches.  (Regression introduced in 2.5.1.)

	o The presence of a 64-bit GDBM database on the manpath no longer
	  causes a 32-bit man process to exit with a fatal error.

	Improvements:
	-------------

	o apropos is much faster when run with many arguments.

	o whatis may be given the full path to an executable as an argument,
	  in which case it will look up the base name of that executable in
	  the appropriate parts of the manpath.
