Hi Tobias and thanks for you issue!
can you please try the following on a clean checkout:

to create a persy build (this creates the missing manpage), execute this in the project root directory
VERSION="0.11.2" make

this should create "/build/persy_0.12" and a tar file in /build. not install as root!
cd /build/persy_0.12
make install

thank you
