Your manpath probably isn't set correctly. The default manpath for
Solaris does *not* include all of the man directories for all
installed software; it is up to you set it appropriately.

Setting your manpath to include /usr/sfw/man, /opt/SUNWspro/man, etc.
would probably alleviate most of these. As far as I know, Sun requires
a man page for almost every binary, even if the software is 3rd party.


This was broken on some OpenSolaris Nevada builds (possibly Solaris 10?) on X86 and is a perfect example of a gotcha which seems trivial to Solaris old-timers but would convince almost any newcomer into thinking "Solaris sucks." It appears to be fixed in SXDE, but if it rears its ugly head again, please log a bug!
