- Add patch man-db-2.9.4-alternitive.dif
  * Supporting ALSO new `alternatives` which has the same tasks as
    `update-alternatives` but in a simplier way.

- Update to version 2.9.4:
  * Add support for zstd-compressed manual pages
  * Recognise Esperanto, Romanian, Tamil, and Ukrainian translations
    of the NAME section.
  * Fix handling of \- in the right-hand side of a NAME section.
  * Treat "\[en]" (etc.) as another synonym for "\-" in NAME sections,
    alongside the existing "\(en" (etc.).
  * Avoid incorrect markup in man(1) with po4a >= 0.58.
  * Fix manual page translation infrastructure to compare po4a
    versions with more than two components correctly.
  * Fix "man -X75-12" and "man -X100-12" to set the document font
    size as well as the device
  * Fix incompatibility of "man -X" and friends with the seccomp
    sandbox.
  * man --recode and manconv now adjust encoding declarations on the
    first line of their input to refer to the new encoding.
  * There is a new "man-recode" program. Which has an interface
    designed for bulk conversion and so can be much faster when
    used on a large number of pages.
  * Fix comparison of candidate manual pages to correctly handle the
    case where the language elements are the same and match the
    locale, but the territory elements differ.
  * If run with no arguments or only a section, man now suggests
    running "man man".
  * man now understands the <page>(<section>) form on its command
    line, so for example "man 'chmod(2)'" is now the same as
