You misinterpret what this command is for (I am using it).

The command expects a man page at point (not an executable having a man
page).  This is like `dired-info' which displays info files from dired.
The prompt is for asking for a man command to render the page.

This is e.g. useful for software that you didn't install via "make
install", or for browsing "/usr/share/man" from within dired.


Michael.
