lists in helpcenter (left) and PDF/Okular (right)

Some manpages in Help Center show formatting issues. I found this issue in
khelpcenter-24.02.2 (this version can't be selected here).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Ensure that man-pages are installed (tested with man-pages-6.8)
2. Search for "man:string_copying" in KDE start menu 
3. Compare displayed manpage with the "man string_copying" command or with PDF
manpage ("man -Tpdf string_copying > string_copying.pdf")

OBSERVED RESULT
The lists in the manpage have extra newlines (lists.png)
In examples section the source code is hard to read because of missing
newslines (examples.png).

EXPECTED RESULT
The formatted manpages should look similar to PDF version or text version.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:
