1) Importing from the docker image is good, but it strips a lot of files (i.e. all documentation). It took me ages to work out why there was no man pages! I do not think a WSL install should do that.
I guess we could install `man-db` as part of the "first setup" script.
Or rather, ship a modified pacman.conf accordingly in the tarball and (re-)install / run whatever is necessary afterwards from the first setup script.
The problem is not a missing man-db package, but these NoExtract definitions: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archlinux-docker/-/blob/master/pacman... This calls for a separate base image for WSL rather than reinstalling everything as part of the first-setup script.
