I'm using OpenMandriva Lx 4.0 for a few weeks now and all in all it works very well on my small Netbook. Recently I've noticed that for some commands e.g. cp or mv there is no manual entry found on my system or it can't be found, but for other commands like netstat it will be displayed. I've checked that the packages man-db and man-pages are installed and also tried to reinstall them.
In another post there was suggested to try
mandb -c
which yields to the following output

However I'm not shure how to proceed in order to get the man pages configured properly. Does anyone has an idea how to fix it?
