Unable to build man pages with sources from git repository

[RiderALT]

When attempting to build findlib from the current Git repository, I noticed that the process for generating man pages depends on a utility called db2man. However, there is no mention in the documentation or the build instructions about how to obtain or install db2man. As a result, building man pages fails unless this additional tool is installed (and it is not clear which package or repository provides it).

I discovered a very old utility named db2man at http://projects.camlcity.org/projects/dl/db2man-0.1/README.
This code appears to be version 0.1, has not been updated for a long time, and the Git repository for it is no longer accessible.
It is not available in opam.

The GitLab repository https://gitlab.com/gerdstolpmann/app-db2man appears to be the same utility, but it has not been updated for modern OCaml syntax and may not compile with ocaml 5.3.0.

It's simple. There is a binary db2man on my laptop for years already, and there was never a need to change or recompile it. So, feature-wise it is still up to date, but it could be that some syntactical changes are needed now. The gitlab.com repo is the current one for hosting it.

I tried to build the db2man utility from your GitLab for OCaml 5.3.0, but it fails to build because it depends on pxp, which in turn depends on ulex (which is not yet available for OCaml 5).

I also tried to look for some simple replacement for db2man, but I couldn't find one either.

This might not be the most appropriate request, but could you possibly include the generated man pages in the project on GitHub?

I would like to package findlib into the ALT Linux Sisyphus RPM repository directly from Git, rather than from a tarball. In my opinion, this approach is much more convenient for maintaining the RPM packaging, but the inability to build db2man significantly complicates this task.
