Fwd: petname snap bug

[Dustin Kirkland]

Is there something special I need to do to have the "man" binary
available to me?

My snap ships a manpage in /snap/petname/share/man/man1/petname.1

Perhaps too cleverly, when you run /snap/bin/petname --help, my
program tries to "exec man petname", and that fails:

$ /snap/bin/petname -h
/snap/petname/9/bin/petname: 49: exec: man: not found

Please advise.  Do I need to include man as a part or something?

Greetings Dustin,

I found a minior quibble with petname. Not sure if you'd prefer this
as a bug somewhere but the snap for petname in the stable channel
breaks when i attempt to get help for petname with 'man not found'
