Description:
argbash installs with an empty man page

Additional info:
Reproduced on latest package version (2.10.0-1)

The issue seem to be the missing 'rst2man' command, which is also mentioned on the library docs (https://argbash.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html)

The issue can be seen when installing from source:
$ git clone https://github.com/matejak/argbash
$ cd argbash/resources/
$ make install
...
rst2man argbash.rst | gzip > argbash.1.gz
/bin/sh: line 1: rst2man: command not found
...

Steps to reproduce:
$ sudo pacman -S argbash
$ man argbash
(note that it renders an empty manpage)
$ gunzip --list /usr/share/man/man1/argbash.1.gz
compressed uncompressed ratio uncompressed_name
20 0 0.0% /usr/share/man/man1/argbash.1
