This makes these images troublesome for interactive use (i.e. to get a CentOS VM that we can SSH into and use normally). Please reconsider this choice. Reinstalling just about every package during provisioning to get man pages back is not a proper solution.
I fail to understand why would you need the man pages on a server. I do not install ANY doc ( no man, no /usr/share/doc ) on any server since 2008 and I never ever felt a need for change. You need to read a man page ? Fine! Install it in the client you ssh from. Or read it online from that same client
