Dear maintainers,

since some time the arrow keys do not work in man any more, as they did before,
In other programs like vi or less, they do still work. So I guess, something has hapened or changed.

It would be nice, if you could have a look at it.

Thanks and best regards

Hans

man just invokes another pager depending on your local configuration.
Have you checked which pager it is invoking?
