The man page search does not work correctly. A search for (in my case) geom or glabel fails, gpart is redirected to a man page for gmap ("Scotch user's manual"). In each case the selection is "FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE and Ports", and while this can be overridden, the web interface forces it, so https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=gpart&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD%2b13.0-RELEASE&arch=default&format=html (which works) is automatically changed to https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=glabel&apropos=0&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD%2b13.0&arch=default&format=html
There was a missing symlink on the server after 13.1-RELEASE came out. No system manual pages where found. I fixed it, please try it again.
There are manual pages for "FreeBSD 13.0-RELEASE", "FreeBSD ports r13.0-RELEASE", and both "FreeBSD 13.0-RELEASE and Ports". By default we offer both. This was on popular demand, most users expected the system and the ports manual pages together. In your example gpart(1) (aka gmap) from the ports manual pages wins because section "1" is higher ranked than section "8" see https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=gpart&apropos=0&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+13.0-RELEASE+and+Ports&arch=default&format=html

Thanks for the quick response. A couple of points: 1. Yes, it now "works for me", as long as I specify the section. 2. The response doesn't address the fact that some man pages can't be found with the defaults. I've added bug 263797 to discuss this matter.
