This is as intended by the cloud SIG and as such isn't a bug. It's specified in the .ks as part of "%packages --excludedocs --instLangs=en --nocore" as a result this isn't a rel-eng issue but rather one to take up with the Cloud SIG on their mailing list
I created https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/6146 as an enhancement request. It would be nice to add to this ticket a workaround to force the installation of manual pages. I don't know what a .ks is nor what %packages means in this context and I suspect I'm not the only one ;-)

I created https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/6146 as an enhancement request.
The enhancement request and discussion needs to go to the cloud list not here.

.ks is kickstart file, it's how the image in defined to be built. The %package section explicitly specifies the removal of all documentation from the image. So what is means is the lack of documentation is intended. If you wish to change this you need to discuss it with the Cloud SIG as they are the ones that make the decision as to what's included or not included in the images. It's nothing to do with release-engineering and hence this is not the place to discuss it.
