commit f3584232229faa5b96f1a0d6d70b64d87c8ac76a
Author: Simon McVittie <smcv@debian.org>
Date:   Sun Feb 5 15:45:32 2023 +0000

    Treat man pages as optional for executables in /usr/libexec
    
    Executables in /usr/libexec are not intended to be run directly by
    users or sysadmins, except possibly when debugging, so it seems
    reasonable to leave them undocumented. Allow packages to install man
    pages for these executables without a warning (as per #1027744) but
    do not require them to do so.
