Missing Man Pages!
All my man pages are gone!
I am using ubuntu gutsy and recently went through an english language package update, (that failed once) and i don't know if that had something to do with it or not...
manpath gives me /usr/local/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/share/man
first 2 are empty, and the thrisd path has to manuals - one for a program i installed after this happened, and the other Xres, i dont know when it was installed (the package is not in my /var/cache/apt/archives folder so i think it was awhile ago).
any help would be great, even if anyone knows how i could *possibly* get all the man pages without reinstalling each individually
thanks
oh my goodness this sucks.
