Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 20.04 is missing some dev man pages:

Section 3:
exec

cap_clear
cap_copy_ext
cap_from_text
cap_get_file
cap_get_proc
cap_init
capgetp
libcap

Section 8:

capsetp
filecap
getcap
netcap
pscap

I'm sure there are plenty of other missing man pages, but these were in
earlier releases. Manpages are important as they are typically far more
current that what you'll get from web search results.

** Affects: manpages (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Summary changed:

- Missing development man pages exec(3), Linux capabilities
+ Missing man pages Linux capabilities, exec(3)
