S cygcheck -c cygwin-doc |grep cygwin-doc
has the output:
cygwin-doc 1.3-2
$ ls -al /usr/man/man1/ps.1.gz
has the output:
----------+ 1 CHTHI mkpasswd 1308 Oct 17 17:22
/usr/man/man1/ps.1.gz
$ which man retuns "man: Command not found"
However, I checked that /usr/bin/man.exe is existing.
With cygcheck, I got the packages number man(1.5j-1) and which(1.5-1).
Maybe, there is a problem of config. here is what I have by doing cygcheck
