+.TH cpackexample 1 "December 2025" "cpackexample 0.1.0"
+.SH NAME
+cpackexample \- Demonstration binary packaged for the Simulation Software Engineering exercise
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B cpackexample
+.RI [ YAMLFILE ]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B cpackexample
+executable is a small driver that ties together several sample modules used in
+the Simulation Software Engineering course. It showcases a Poisson solver based
+on deal.II, a Boost flat set playground, a Boost filesystem demo, and a
+yaml-cpp configuration parser.
+.PP
+When a
+.I YAMLFILE
+argument is provided, the program attempts to parse it using yaml-cpp and print
+the discovered configuration options. Without the argument it prints a short
+usage hint.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.I YAMLFILE
+Optional path to a YAML configuration file that should be parsed with
+yaml-cpp.
+.SH FILES
+.TP
+.I /usr/share/doc/cpackexample
+Contains documentation such as the MIT license and Debian changelog for the
+package.
+.SH AUTHOR
+Packaged by gufarui <st196511@stud.uni-stuttgart.de> for the Packaging with
+CPack exercise at the University of Stuttgart.
