            Bug ID: 214545
           Summary: freebsd-update erroneously reports mandoc.db databases
                    need updating
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.0-RELEASE
          Hardware: arm64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: anubas at hotmail.com

After patching my servers, I have noticed that after a couple of days,
freebsd-update thinks the following files still need to be patched which cause
additional "[server_name] security updates" emails to be generated each
morning.

/usr/share/man/mandoc.db
/usr/share/openssl/man/mandoc.db

I have been told that these databases are periodically updated, which means
their hash values will change
(https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/58553/#post-334803). Should freebsd-update
ignore changes to these files or are these files in the wrong location?

I have also noticed that the "freebsd-update IDS" command produces hash
warnings for the above listed files three different times. All other files are
only listed once.
