mandb Command Not Found on macOS During Installation #60

@Abdurahman-hassan

Description

@Abdurahman-hassan

Problem:

The installation script for Betty includes the mandb command, which is not available on macOS. This results in an error message (mandb: command not found) when the script is run on a macOS system.

Impact:

This issue causes confusion and may lead users to believe that the installation process has failed, even though Betty is
installed correctly.

Proposed Solution:

Modify the installation script to check the operating system type. If the script detects macOS (darwin), it should skip the mandb command and display a message indicating that this step is not necessary. On Linux systems, the script should execute mandb as usual.

Testing:

The modified script has been tested on both macOS and Linux systems to ensure that it behaves as expected, skipping the mandb command on macOS and executing it on Linux.
