The intended permissions are: drwxr-sr-x 89 man root 4096 Sep 23 07:42 /var/cache/man (The odd setgid bit is just there to avoid cat files accidentally ending up owned by the calling user's group when man is installed setuid; I should probably audit file creation instead to ensure that at worst everything ends up with the man user's primary group in that case. But it's not very important for your case.) > But it doesn't happen anymore, and the cache of manpages is now > finally created. I think it is the cron job who did the trick > and fixed the prob.
