Ubuntu 14.04

using whereis command I came across the following situation

if I type '-M' option I get binaries result,
if I type '-B' option I get manual results,

command               : whereis -M /usr -f apt-get

expected output : /usr/share/man/man8/apt-get.8.gz

real output            : /usr/bin/apt-get /usr/bin/X11/apt-get


command               : whereis -B /usr -f apt-get

expected output : /usr/bin/apt-get /usr/bin/X11/apt-get

real output            : /usr/share/man/man8/apt-get.8.gz
