When you install new man pages you need to re-build the aprops/whatis
database with 'makewhatis', see 'man makewhatis' for details.

You can get the complete list of files a package has installed with pkg_info
-v <packagename>.

After digging around with the pkgsrc stuff, it looks as if it only installs
the mysql(1) manpage. It does however install the mysql info file - try
'info mysql', it's much more extensive than the manpage ;-)
