setting up alpine the first time...

I created a vm in vmware using the iso for the alpine virt distro. I did 'setup-alpine' and went through the initial setup. I set up the disk as 'sys' and at the end it asked if I wanted to erase the disk. I said no (since I did not want to nuke the OS) I went to install the 'basic tools' from this page: https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Alpine_newbie_apk_packages I did fine until this line:

apk add man man-pages lsof lsof-doc less less-doc nano nano-doc curl curl-doc

Alpine said 'unsatisfiable constraints:" man missing

I tried 'apk add man' and got the same error. Help?
