No, if it's intended as "Private," as this one seems to be, then *by
definition* it must not have man pages.

In that case, it should be shipped as libdaemon.so.1 (not
libdaemon.so, as the case materials seem to have), and it should omit
any compilation symlink and associated header files.

If it's meant to be used by multiple projects, and not just this one,
then it may well need a much closer look and higher commitment, which
would require a man page.
