For another package (weasyprint) where I have to build the man page from Sphinx documentation myself, I use this to build it: override_dh_installman: PYTHONPATH=.:$PYTHONPATH sphinx-build -b man docs debian dh_installman Then weasyprint.manpages has: debian/weasyprint.1 Their build_man command has a lot of moving parts, so pyfai may br more complicated.
