我最近从 Debian 迁移到 Arch Linux，并且在使用手册页时遇到了一些问题。我可以很好地打开它们，因此类似的命令man printf会将我带到正确的页面，但如果我运行man -k printf或apropos printf没有得到任何结果。我读到这可以通过命令修复mandb，但这对我不起作用。我得到以下输出：
0 man subdirectories contained newer manual pages.
0 manual pages were added.
0 stray cats were added.
0 old database entries were purged.
有任何想法吗？
编辑：
该whatis命令的行为方式相同。我得到：
printf: nothing appropriate.
