When browsing tethereal(1) manual page I get error messages, two
examples pasted below:

Manual page tethereal(1) line 83/tmp/zmant2uQ7W:650: warning [p 6, 8.2i]: can't break line

Manual page tethereal(1) line 43/tmp/zmanQhyDQB:650: warning [p 6, 8.2i]: can't break line

These doesn't show immidiately after opening the manpage, but after a
few PageDown's.

This is similar to bug #290881

Running it like there shows:

miernik@szrenica:~$ man tethereal > /dev/null
Reformatting tethereal(1), please wait...

This is caused by a very long line in -z switch explanation:

    If the optional filterstring is provided, the stats will only be
    calculated on those calls that match that filter.  Example: use -z

this line has no space, groff can't break it.  Unfortunately it can't
be made much shorter.
