But he went out of his way to install man pages on arch? Probably a narc.

Aren't they there by default?

Noop, you have to install the man-db package

If you're using arch, you shouldn't need man pages. Because you use arch, BTW.

Wait, what? Arch has more comprehensive documentation than just about any other distro.

It does. It's wonderful. But it isn't installed by default. You have to ask for it. Or use the Internet.
