+Template: man-db/install-setuid
+Type: boolean
+Default: false
+_Description: Should man and mandb be installed 'setuid man'?
+ The man and mandb program can be installed with the set-user-id bit set, so
+ that they will run with the permissions of the 'man' user. This allows
+ ordinary users to benefit from the caching of preformatted manual pages
+ ('cat pages'), which may aid performance on slower machines.
+ .
+ Cached man pages only work if you are using an 80-column terminal, to avoid
+ one user causing cat pages to be saved at widths that would be inconvenient
+ for other users. If you use a wide terminal, you can force man pages to be
+ formatted to 80 columns anyway by setting MANWIDTH=80.
+ .
+ Enabling this feature may be a security risk, so it is disabled by default.
+ If in doubt, you should leave it disabled.
+
+Template: man-db/auto-update
+Type: boolean
+Default: true
+Description: for internal use; can be preseeded
+ If true, automatically rebuild man-db's database when packages containing
+ manual pages are installed.
