            Bug ID: 226036
           Summary: Issue when building makewhatis
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.1-STABLE
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: kpect@protonmail.com

Hello.
Please see code below:

        /usr/src/usr.bin/Makefile:
...
.if ${MK_MANDOCDB} == "no"      # AND
SUBDIR.${MK_MAN_UTILS}+=        makewhatis -> here we don't build makewhatis as
we have MK_MANDOCDB != 'no' which is WITHOUT_MANDOCDB == 'no'
.endif

        /usr/src/Makefile.inc1:
...
# Needed for share/man
.if ${MK_MAN_UTILS} != "no"
ITOOLS+=makewhatis -> here we add makewhatis to ITOOLS array that should be
copied to temporary directory
.endif

So when you have following string commented out
#WITHOUT_MANDOCDB=YES
#WITHOUT_MAN_UTILS=YES

Following error appears:
Required tool makewhatis not found in PATH.
