Wanted to use asciidoc to create current man pages for git, but cannot get asciidoc3 to run.

Can always be user-error, but generally, it just installs.
Maybe the .post4 bit is in the way, but I do not know what to correct.
Suggestions welcome.And our answer:

Indeed the PyPI/pip installation as root does not work.
That is a known amd intended behavior: because of the many conf-files you need to run asciidoc3_postinstall immediately after pip3 install. This makes only sense as a normal user (not root) with option --user:
normaluser$ pip3 install --user asciidoc3
For system wide installation (as root) we recommend to download the tarball asciidoc3-3.1.0.tar.gz
