Thank you for checking.

I am not sure what the error could be.
 From my build folder:

jdupes.1

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?

I am not familiar with man pages (as developer)
