Package: xterm
Version: 4.2.1-13
Severity: minor
Running "man xterm" (with man-db 2.4.2-4) gets me what claims to be the
x-terminal-emulator(1) man page. Now that this is uxterm(1), it sends me
to the xterm man page for more information.
$ PAGER='cat -s' man xterm
Reformatting x-terminal-emulator(1), please wait...
uxterm(1) uxterm(1)
NAME
uxterm - terminal emulator for X, with Unicode support
SYNOPSIS
uxterm [ xterm-options ]
DESCRIPTION
uxterm is a wrapper around the xterm(1) program that invokes the latter
program with the "UXTerm" X resource class set. All arguments to
uxterm are passed to xterm without processing; the -class and -u8
options should not be specified because they are used by the wrapper.
See the xterm manual page for more information on xterm-options.

I believe this problem was a bug in man-db, and has been resolved:
man-db (2.4.2-13) unstable; urgency=3Dmedium
* When sorting located man pages for display, sort by pure section, then
id (real page, symlink, whatis reference, etc.), then extended section,
rather than the previous ordering of extended section then id. This
works around the worst effects of #204249, in which changing a
cross-hierarchy man page alternative can cause man to get the display
order wrong.
