it seems a man path search defect of man db
$ cd /
$ man u2d
man: can't open /usr/share/man/dos2unix.1: No such file or directory
No manual entry for u2d
but
$ cd /usr/share/man/man1/
$ man u2d
works.
As
$ gzip -cd u2d.1.gz
.so unix2dos.1
man-db is looking on the wrong directory, while for
$ gzip -cd zcat.1.gz
.so man1/gzip.1
$ man zcat
works fine everywhere
Regards
Marco
