Problems running makewhatis

- Subject: Problems running makewhatis
- Bcc:
I've installed most - not all - of Cygwin and have been trying to run
/usr/sbin/makewhatis. First time run thru I get the following:
cp: cannot create regular file `/var/cache/man/whatis': No such file or
director
y
/bin/awk: not found
/bin/awk: not found
/bin/awk: not found
/bin/awk: not found
This repeats a couple times. If I manually create the 'missing' directory
the cp error clears up but I still get several lines regarding the /bin/awk
error.
Everything else seems to work fine I just wanted to get the man pages going.
Advice please?
Huw D.
