Fixed in utopic now:

man-db (2.7.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release:
    - Add systemd tmpfiles snippet to clean up old cat files after a week.
    - Run "col -b -p -x" over cat pages if possible before parsing them
      (closes: #751934).
    - Move database mtime out of the database into file metadata, making the
      database reproducible between installations (closes: #760895).
    - Use high-precision timestamps.
    - Order files by first physical extent before reading (closes: #574410).
    - Prioritise COLUMNS above TIOCGWINSZ (LP: #1315282).
    - Formatting improvements to man(1) (closes: #726266).
    - Don't use pointed-to name as title for database-located pages (closes:
      #709405).
    - Move zsoelim to /usr/lib/man-db/.
  * Remove unnecessary entries from debian/dirs.
  * Cache the value of man-db/auto-update in the file system, so that we
    don't have to talk to debconf when processing triggers (closes:
    #579075).
  * Add MIME handlers (thanks, Kevin Ryde; closes: #725157).
  * Override the long-standing Lintian warning for non-standard-dir-perm on
    /var/cache/man.
  * Adjust cron.daily to skip cat file cleanup if running under systemd,
    since the upstream-provided tmpfiles snippet now handles that.
  * Rebuild the database on upgrade to this version, since the format has
    changed.
