Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: git-core

"git help" requires /usr/bin/man to exist in order to display help, but
man isn't necessarily installed (in particular, it isn't installed on
machines installed with python-vm-builder).

a...@masada ~ [09:09] $ git help foo
warning: failed to exec 'man': No such file or directory
fatal: no man viewer handled the request

It seems like git-core should probably depend on or recommend man-db.

** Affects: git-core (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
