Install the English version as default in $(mandir)/man1, and all selected
man pages (via $LINGUAS, which should default to all except English if unset)
into their respective subdirectory. If you don't want to check for $LINGUAS,
just install all of them. (man pages aren't large anyway, and it's up to
a packager to remove them if he doesn't like them, or put them into a
-doc package).
Btw, solaris uses those subdirectories as well (though on the system I
checked, it tried only $mandir/de_DE.UTF-8 if that was the locale, and not
de_DE and de as well...).
Yours, Rüdiger.
