Mysteriously, the $MANPATH was empty when vim was called as manpager and caused
the
issue of this thread. Setting
export MANPAGER="env MANPATH=${MANPATH} vim -RM +MANPAGER -"
worked around it.
Also,
export MANPAGER="env LANGUAGE=${LANG} $vim -RM +MANPAGER -"
ensures that the manpages are displayed in the user's preferred language.
Thus the question: Should the documentation :help manpager recommend setting
export MANPAGER="env MAN_PN=1 MANPATH=${MANPATH} LANGUAGE=${LANG} vim -RM
+MANPAGER -"
(instead of export MANPAGER="env MAN_PN=1 vim -RM +MANPAGER -") ?
