Version 1.21.0-1 of jdupes has been uploaded.
jdupes is a program for finding and acting on duplicate files
On GitHub it is possible to find the changelog for the new release:

The help output mentions a manpage but there is none in the package.
I think the jdupes.1 manpage is in the package, but it's not installed
in a location where man is going to look for it.
[...]
I suppose that "jdupes.1" is the file that man shows to the end-user.
Also from the makefile
----
install: $(PROGRAM_NAME) installdirs
$(INSTALL_PROGRAM) $(PROGRAM_NAME)
$(DESTDIR)$(BIN_DIR)/$(PROGRAM_NAME)
$(INSTALL_DATA) $(PROGRAM_NAME).1
$(DESTDIR)$(MAN_DIR)/$(PROGRAM_NAME).$(MAN_EXT)
----
and in the cygport file I do a cygmake install...
Could it be that "jdupes.1" should go in another directory?
It should go into /usr/share/man/man1/.
Yes, the fact that /usr is omitted suggests MAN_DIR isn't being set
correctly by that Makefile.
I am not familiar with man pages (as developer)
I am not really familiar with cygport, sorry. It needs trial-and-error
in my experience.
Solving problems by thinking about them is usually much more efficient
than a thud-and-blunder approach.
