no man in image #133

The image is not designed to be used for development purposes out-of-the-box. If you want 'man' you should install it yourself.

rbabayoff commented 10 years ago

Understood. Stupid question, but how do I do that? According to the ubuntu docs, I need to install the manpages package, but apt-get can't find it.

I think the package you want is actually called man-db.

And you need to run apt-get update.
