I thought that if the version of pandoc is not suitable, the build skips
man pages.
No idea if pandoc 2.3.1 is available for Ubuntu 16.04.

Phil,
What version of pandoc are you using? One from jib, or some other
version, e.g from Linux.

I've been working on Windows and Mac issues for the last several

Try pandoc --help for more information.
