I do it for my own use anyway, to have the latest docs, just to save flipping to Linux from Cygwin or Windows. The install location is under the standard /usr/share/man/linux/ which can only by default be used by specifying $ man -m|--systems linux ... but can also be added explicitly to a users' MANPATH or alias e.g. $ alias man='man -m man,linux' or swap the order to prioritize Linux, or for parallel installs add each in your preferred order. I have Linux 5.05-5.13 packages available on Google drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1r3vhlN4fsCAGAtxpVD9PJPVpahCmnIPE More information is available at the project home page: https://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/ release blog: https://linux-man-pages.blogspot.com/ mailing list: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-man/ Sources are at: https://github.com/mkerrisk/man-pages and https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/man-pages/man-pages.git All Linux distros publish these pages.
