I agree; however, most of them only need to be done manually if you use
a non-standard installation method such as DESTDIR. Interesting one was
the mandb command. I've never run it before *ever*, and I really do not
see the purpose. It does build a database, but what is it for? My systems
have always found man pages with no delay whatsoever. I cannot see any
difference before or after running mandb, and I have over 12,000 man files
on my current system.
