Gaddis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -----Original Message----- From: icewind [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 14, 2002 12:42 PM To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Subject: broken "man" Hello, I installed the lastest stable release of debain over the network, installing a minimal number of packages. Shouldn't 'man' be part of the base install? When I type man, the system doesnt find anything. How can I determine if man is installed and see if all of the things that man depends on are installed as well? Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
