timewarrior Timewarrior 1.7.1 Linux built from source no help or man pages

Hi Team, I recently installed timewarrior 1.7.1 from source exactly as instructed in the README. However the installation came with no man page available when I did timew help summary or man timew or man timew-summary.

I've tried both sudo make install and sudo checkinstall.

I am running MX Linux 21 wildflower, a variant based on Debian 11.1.

Is Asciidoctor available on your system? It is required to build the man pages (when you have not used the tarball). 🤔

I don't understand why we need to "build the man pages" . They are included in the tarball. They just need to be put into place.

... They are included in the tarball. They just need to be put into place.

In my previous answer I misinterpreted this as having checked out the repository, and building and installing Timewarrior from there. Here, Asciidoctor is required for the man pages.

The generated man pages are included in the tar ball, but they are not put into place when Asciidoctor is missing. This should be fixed with #656
