Part of Japanese man lacks #3

The Slint project members and I were promoting the adoption of Japanese man for Slint. As one of them, I attempted to display Japanese man with GTKMan. However, some of them are missing.

(The display below is indicated by Salix) _2016-12-06_11-39-19.md.jpg

Normal display of that man: slint-man-konqueror.md.jpg

Probably GTKMan seems to be malfunctioning with multibyte code processing tags around.

I confirm this setting: https://github.com/gapan/gtkman/issues/2

In order to display Japanese manual correctly, "man" command is replaced with "man-db".

No. You're looking at different manpages. They both have the same name, but they are different, the contents are different. If you use gtkman on the same system from where that second manpage was taken from, it will display the same contents.
