I have installed Drush 8.2.3 globally on a Lubuntu 18.04 image. This was done without Composer (I used the default install instructions here)
However, if I run drush topic
and select any topic number from the list I get
phar:///usr/local/bin/drush/examples/sync_via_http.drush.inc: No such file or directory
more: stat of phar:///usr/local/bin/drush/examples/sync_via_http.drush.inc failed: No such file or directory
What gives?
