      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      I tried to run `man -f man` in Image Mode and it failed.{}

      Seems this does not work because the cache is created as part of rpm installation by running man-db-cache-update.service via systemd. That does not work in containers, impacting the resulting image mode.

      Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:

      man-db-2.12.0-9.el10

      I suppose it is the same for rhel-9 too.

      How reproducible is this bug?:

      always

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Create an image mode image and make sure man-db is installed
      2. Check man cache is created

      Expected results

      /var/cache/man
      is not empty
