IDK anything about manpages but the debian package linter complain about this:

kplex: manpage-has-errors-from-man usr/share/man/man1/kplex.1.gz  line 16: 'R' is a string (producing the registered sign), not a macro.
kplex: manpage-section-mismatch usr/share/man/man1/kplex.1.gz:1 1 != 8

For the first part..".R" (switch to Roman) appears to be obsolete. It's referenced in some older docs on the man macro set but as you've found doesn't work with modern groff. I have hopefully resolved this (groff -Tasicc -man doesn't throw errors anyway).

The second part was a mismatch between an incorrect man section heading (8) and the (correct) install location (1).

Thanks for spotting both of those and let me know if they are fixed in the update I just pushed to the develop branch
