Title: What happened to man in SME 5.0?
Post by: Holger Erlands-Petersen on October 09, 2001, 04:29:33 AM

Hi,

In E-Smith 4.1.2 I was able to use the man pages.
This is not possible in 5.0 (bash: man: command not found).

What to do - anyone?

You have to install it by yourself (it is not installed by default).
You should get the latest version of the man RPM (ftp://fr.rpmfind.net/linux/redhat/updates/7.1/en/os/i386/man-1.5i2-0.7x.5.i386.rpm) and install it by typing :
rpm -Uvh man-1.5i2-0.7x.5.i386.rpm

Hi Franck,

I followed your instructions and installed the man pages.
It works fine.
Thank you very much for your help!

Actually, it's on the SME 5 CD, it's just not installed by default.

Yes, but if you look at

you can see that it is recommended to install the latest version from RedHat.
