Re: how do I find which deb pakage contains man command?



Hi Geengun:
I would check to make sure you don't already have man
your system. I've noticed that that is a common
error message which is given when man can't find the
requested file. ( In this case securetty) So any mis-
spellings or missing . or - will give that same message.
Try a simple man command like "man ls" to see if
you get a response. Also "info" has a lot better
information at least in potato.      Dean
