- Avoid that mandb-symlink-target-timestamp fools us 

- Workaround missing groff-full to get refer(1), the bibliographic
  preprocessor found

- Update to man-db 2.10.0 (4 February 2022)
  * Manpath deduplication no longer mishandles the case where another entry
    in the manpath is a suffix of a candidate path to append.
  * Fix potential crash in path searching if `getcwd` fails for reasons other
    than running out of memory.
  * Fix crash in `globbing` test tool if run with no non-option arguments.
  * `lexgrog` now produces output in the user's locale.
  * Downgrade "malformed .lf request" warning to a debug message and rephrase
    it somewhat, since `.lf` requests can use `*roff` arithmetic expressions
    and we can't reasonably parse those.
  * Avoid modifying the database without changing its mtime, which had been
    possible since 2.7.0 if `mandb`'s purge phase found work to do but the
    main phase didn't, and which confused some backup systems into reporting
    possible filesystem corruption.
  * `man` no longer inadvertently modifies the `MANSECT` environment variable
    before passing it on to its subprocesses.
  * `mandb` now stores the mtime of link targets as the mtime of their
    corresponding database entries, rather than sometimes storing the mtime
    of the link instead.
  * Since man-db 2.4.2, `man` has behaved as if the `-l` option was given if
    a manual page argument contains a slash.  Since man-db 2.5.6, this has
    interacted slightly poorly with the subpage feature, emitting spurious
    error messages if given multiple manual page arguments some of which
    include a slash.  `man` no longer emits spurious error messages in this
    case.
