Embree man page not found

Hi!

I have embree installed which includes /usr/share/man/man3/rtcIntersect1.4embree4.gz, yet "man rtcIntersect1" fails with "No manual entry for rtcIntersect1".
I can read the page with "man -l /usr/share/man/man3/rtcIntersect1.4embree4.gz".
I already ran "sudo mandb".
How to add the man page to the database?

That page is in man section 3, please try man 3 rtcIntersect1

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

That doesn't work either.

Re: Embree man page not found

The embree3 package has a manpage with a very similar filename.

Are embree & embree3 both installed on your system ?

I found the issue: Upgrading to Embree 4 got the naming wrong.
I filed an issue: https://github.com/RenderKit/embree/issues/540
