Thanks for this, Dawid — a man page is a nice standards touch, and the install rule slots cleanly into the existing non-Apple install() block. CI is green across the board (build, macOS, Windows, CodeQL, accessibility), so the configure-time gzip and ${CMAKE_INSTALL_MANDIR}/man1 install resolve correctly. 73 SP9SKA 👍

A few optional, non-blocking suggestions:

1. Consider installing the page uncompressed. file(ARCHIVE_CREATE ...) runs at configure time, so edits to aethersdr.1 won't be re-gzipped until CMake reconfigures (there's no build-time dependency on the source). man reads uncompressed pages fine, and distro packaging helpers (Debian's dh_installman, etc.) prefer to handle compression themselves — a pre-gzipped page can even conflict with them. Installing the raw file is simpler and avoids both issues:

install(FILES packaging/linux/aethersdr.1
    DESTINATION ${CMAKE_INSTALL_MANDIR}/man1
)

2. Leading whitespace in the DESCRIPTION. The .SH DESCRIPTION lines start with a space ( AetherSDR brings...). In roff a line beginning with whitespace forces a break and preserves the indent, which can render the paragraph a little oddly. Dropping the leading spaces lets it fill normally.

3. Empty .TH date field. The date field in .TH AETHERSDR "1" " " ... is blank — minor, but a date or version string there is the usual convention.

None of these block merge — the page is functional as-is. Nice contribution.

Approving. Rebased onto main (resolving the CMakeLists conflict with #3673 — both the metainfo and man-page installs now coexist), and tidied the man page: stripped the leading-space lines (DESCRIPTION now fills correctly), added a real .TH date + proper "User Commands" manual title, and a SEE ALSO. Switched the install to ship the man page uncompressed so distro packaging can compress per its own policy. Renders clean under groff with no warnings. Thanks @dawkagaming — 73 SP9SKA.
