Gabu, that was a stupid statement, since you don't have an account on
my system to check. And what I said is exactly correct:

brightrain:~$ ls /usr/man/
cat1@  cat3@  cat5@  cat7@  cat9@  man1/  man3/  man5/  man7/  man9/  preformat/
cat2@  cat4@  cat6@  cat8@  catn@  man2/  man4/  man6/  man8/  mann/
brightrain:~$ ls /usr/local/man/
cat1@  cat3@  cat5@  cat7@  cat9@  man1/  man3/  man5/  man7/  man9/  mano/
cat2@  cat4@  cat6@  cat8@  catn@  man2/  man4/  man6/  man8/  mann/

I never deleted any multi-lang man page dirs, so for whatever reason,
programs did not try to install them.
