I think that's the culprit I've missed.

I was applying some patches[0] to see whether they're properly
rendered,... guess the build system noticed that their sources were
newer than the already build manpages.


Without any changes, it builds without asciidoctor, as you say.

Sorry for the noise.


Cheers,

PS: @Jeremy,... I've submitted another series[1] upstream which deals
    with improving their nftables.service.in ... and there will be a
    2nd one with ideas for making more use of systemd's sandboxing
    options.
    I would want to see the same changes in Debian's nftables.service,
    but I thought I wait with upstream opinions before I file a PR in
    salsa.
    But you might have already look at the first series and tell me
    what you think about them.
