Explicitly document that batman relies on man-db

It does not seem to work with other man implementations (e.g.: mandoc).

What distro are you using? It runs on MacOS, which uses mandoc under the hood. If possible, I'd like to properly support mandoc.

I originally had this issue on Arch, but it also reproduces on Alpine.

If it's not too much trouble, can you try using batman from the master branch on Arch and Alpine? I recently updated it to remove a dependency on the col program, which was causing some issues on both distros.
