Comment:

 Workaround on an XO in recent builds:

  * delete the %_excludedocs line in /etc/rpm/macros.imgcreate
  * be connected to the internet
  * install the manual page viewer with ''yum install man''
  * identify the packages you require a manual page for, e.g. ''rpm -qf
 /bin/ls'' responds with ''coreutils'',
  * reinstall the packages, e.g. ''yum reinstall coreutils''
