man-db is only the tools for manpages, but not the actual pages. So this
will not work as expected when installing or removing packages that
contain manpages. It should be added to classes/manpages.bbclass
instead, with a RDEPENDS += "man-db". You can also fix man-pages_4.14.bb
to inherit the class at the same time.
Oh, and you can also take qemu into use, so that this works also for
read only rootfs, and doesn't add to first boot time, like this:
