How do I restore the man command?

Post by Luluc »

So the man command is symlinked to /usr/local/bin/pman.

It's a script and it says on line 21,
If you like to use original version of man, try '/usr/local/bin/man'.

But /usr/local/bin/man is symlinked to /usr/local/bin/pman.

So what can I do to have the man command back?

Install man-db and remove /usr/local/bin/man
