Let's take this to -devel.

I had a couple of thoughts here:

1)  Make a non-essential, non-splitoff companion package to build and
install the translated manpages via po4a.

2)  Do a local build including all the manpages, put those in a tarball
(e.g. with top directory share/ to be friendly to those not using the
default Fink path), upload them somewhere, make that a SourceN, and
install the pre-compiled pages into the .deb.

3) Get a bindist.  (not a near-term option).
