That’s because xorg-server (and its manual pages) were installed neither
in the global profile nor in your user profile.

In general, just because your system uses a service, say
‘openssh-service-type’, doesn’t mean that the corresponding package,
‘openssh’, is installed in the global profile.

HTH!

xorg documentation only available when installing xorg-server

2017-12-17 Thread Martin Castillo
I have a graphical system running and wanted to man xorg.conf.
But that failed. I have to install xorg-server to get the manuals.

Why is that so? the system wide manpath was included in my
environment(as is default on guixsd).
