I tought that simply passing the LANG variable was enough so rpm would
output locale stuff. What is missing to get that ?

Not sure I follow you. When you enter a directory, it does not expect
sub-directories at all. It uses the wildcard spec (*.rpm by default) to
scan the directory directly. It does not even rely on *.386.rpm. I mean,
you can take one file say
linuxconf-1.12r7-1.i386.rpm
and copy it to /tmp/toto.rpm
and managerpm won't be confused by that. It will rightfully show the
proper package name (linuxconf) but will remember the shorter file name
and use that for query,upgrade...
I must be missing something ...
