- Own /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d if not owned by package filesystem

- Update to version 2.7.1
  For the first time since version 2.4.0, the database format has
  changed slightly, so you will need to run 'mandb --create' after
  installing the new version to rebuild your databases from scratch.
- Fixes
  * Various portability fixes for Solaris, contributed by Peter Bray.
  * man now runs correctly when its current working directory has been
    deleted.  (As a result of this fix, man-db now requires
    libpipeline >= 1.4.0.)
  * 'man -a' sends its prompts to /dev/tty rather than to stderr, and
    likewise reads replies from /dev/tty rather than from stdin.
  * Be more careful to avoid using or double-closing closed database
    handles.  Fixes test suite failures on some systems.
  * Patch the fdutimens function imported from Gnulib to work around a
    libc bug in GNU/Hurd.
  * Fix test suite in the case where the system supports
    high-precision timestamps but the file system containing the build
    directory does not.
  * lexgrog now filters terminal escape sequences out of cat pages
    before trying to parse them.
  * Tools that consider the terminal line length now prioritise the
    COLUMNS environment variable above the TIOCGWINSZ ioctl.
  * Manpath elements are no longer canonicalised before being inserted
    into the search path; this caused the use of incorrect catpaths in
    some cases.  This was broken by the LANGUAGE-handling fixes in
    2.5.4.
  * Remove test suite dependency on realpath(1).
  * Fix a test failure when configured with --enable-undoc.
