You cannot specify a *.c file because no debug message will match
with that string.  The "core set [debug|verbose]" command has
not received any attention to rectify its tab completion so it
supplies only *.c filename suggestions which no longer work.
IIRC, this was a consequence of modules becoming more than one file.

You can specify
core set debug 1 core
To get debug messages for the Asterisk core module.
or
core set debug 1 <*.so-module>
To get debug messages for the loadable Asterisk *.so module.

In your case since manager.c is part of core you will get debug messages
from manager.c and all other files that are part of the core module.
