Unfortunately I do not, RH.  Witness this; in a flat selection list
under the 8.2 installer (while installing 8.2 for real), I picked the
english man pages.  However when I ran a "man cdrecord" last night, I
found to my amazement that the "man" executable was not installed !

Plus I had chosen the "Documentation" group selection during
installation.  Stranger and stranger.  So I pulled up rpmdrake and
checked the rpm database "according to Mandrake."  :)  Sure enough, it
was showing not installed...so I installed man.  No big deal...but it
sure was interesting.

BTW, 8.2 is the cat's meow.  ;)
