Another option might be to simply delete/rename the index.db file from
that directory tree; according to the man-db-manual.txt file, "man"
would then fall back to doing direct file searching within that tree
(which might be good enough in the case of the /packages/ man pages --
and certainly better than the current situation for 32-bit machines...).
