that's wrong. the official documentation for Glibc are the info documents
in the glibc-doc package. manpages-dev is a third-party package that wasn't
written purposely for Glibc and is plenty of API incompatibilities with the
Glibc implementation.

in some cases, manpages-dev does even introduce programming bugs [1] for its
unawareness of Glibc specification.
