@bartus11
I will do, thanks.

@jim_mcnamara
"Your" command created an output of 14 directories.

Code:
# find / -type d -name man
/usr/share/webconsole/man
/usr/share/man
/usr/openwin/share/man
/usr/lib/gnome-private/share/man
/usr/lib/cc-ccr/man
/usr/postgres/8.2/man
.
.
.
/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/schemas/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/man

@fpmurphy
Nothing Smilie

@jlliagre
Okay, thank you for the explaination. Nice to know the real reason.

@all
I'll keep you up-to-date regarding this topic.

Following are the steps which I'm going to try one after another:

1) Try adding the 14 direcotories (see my answer to jim_mcnamara above) to PATH
2) Afterwards I'd follow bartus' approach
3) If that also fails (no.2), I'd simply reinstall the whole system and choose "Developer" or higher.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE:
Now all is working fine. I just added the missing package like this:
Code:
# cd /cdrom/sol_10_811_sparc/Solaris_10/Product
# pkgadd -d . SUNWman

I decided to start immediately with the installation of the missing package because it was not listed in "pkginfo".

Thank you for your support Smilie
