I don't know what is wrong, because my man can see newly installed manual pages. So, rather than solve your problem, I'll give a crutch. Try running (as root) mandb to update the man caches. This will at least avoid a reboot. > I can not reboot > my computer every time i install something! I did that in Windows for years. -Mitch
