    This might well have the same root cause as #986030, but I'm
    reporting it as a separate bug because I want to link to bookworm's
    polkit(8) in text that I'm contributing to the bookworm release
    notes, and the HTML currently displayed for that version is
    misleading.

    I believe they're likely to have the same cause, referenced in the
    Github issue above.

    2. The sidebar and footer claim that the man page is from
    polkitd_122-2
       (even though unstable is now at 122-3), but the HTML content is
    the
       old 2009 version (same as bullseye).
       - The text content of https://manpages.debian.org/testing/polkitd/polkit.8.en.gz
         *is* the correct 2021 version, though. Perhaps the generated
    HTML was cached and needs some cache invalidation to be regenerated?

    This sounds like one of the problems mentioned in the Github issue, specifically "However, during my investigation I realized that we
    incorrectly store a reference to the version of the current package,
    even when incorrectly re-using older content".
