Looks like my whole man setup is messed up:

[darose at davidrlin ~]$ ls -l /usr/share/man/man1/wget*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 25906 2008-01-27 17:23 /usr/share/man/man1/wget.1.gz
[darose at davidrlin ~]$ man wget
No manual entry for wget
[darose at davidrlin ~]$ man -d wget
Reading config file /etc/man.conf
found man directory /usr/man
found man directory /usr/share/man
found man directory /usr/local/man
found man directory /usr/local/share/man
found man directory /usr/X11R6/man
found manpath map /bin --> /usr/share/man
found manpath map /sbin --> /usr/share/man
found manpath map /usr/bin --> /usr/share/man
found manpath map /usr/sbin --> /usr/share/man
found manpath map /usr/local/bin --> /usr/local/share/man
found manpath map /usr/local/sbin --> /usr/local/share/man
found manpath map /usr/X11R6/bin --> /usr/X11R6/man
found manpath map /usr/bin/X11 --> /usr/X11R6/man
found manpath map /usr/bin/mh --> /usr/share/man

using /bin/less -is as pager

using /opt/mozilla/bin/firefox as browser

using /bin/cat to dump HTML pages as text
adding /usr/man to manpath
adding /opt/java/man to manpath
adding /opt/java/jre/man to manpath
adding /opt/qt/man to manpath
No manual entry for wget


Anyone know WTF?!?!?

Tnx,

DR
