On yesterday's monster update, I received the following warning:
$ grep -A1 "/var/cache/man" /var/log/pacman.log
[2016-01-10 00:38] [ALPM] warning: directory permissions differ on /var/cache/man/
filesystem: 2755 package: 755[2016-07-16 20:55] [ALPM] warning: directory permissions differ on /var/cache/man/
filesystem: 2755 package: 755
... a permission issue on "/var/cache/man/". I unfortunately missed this warning in January, but this time I googled a bit and found this bug report in combination with that one.
It seems to be very similar on my machine:
$ ls -ld /var/cache/man
drwxr-sr-x 39 root root 4096 17.07.2016 00:04 /var/cache/man/$ cat /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/man-db.conf
