Description:
HDF5 does not provide man pages for its utilities (h5dump, h5ls, etc.). The Debian project provides such man pages, whch are just reformattings of the output of `cmd --help`: https://packages.debian.org/sid/i386/hdf5-tools/filelist . It would be nice to provide such man pages.
I would also understand if this gets closed as "upstream feature request", though.
This task depends upon

Upstream should provide these man pages, has anyone reached out to upstream with the created man pages?

You can ask upstream to include man pages on this mailing list:
