I find it odd that our Salsa CI pipeline still shows a green check even
though piuparts is emitting an error message about these links. I hope
that doesn't indicate some kind of problem with our CI setup. :/

This is simple enough to fix, however. We can always add the links back
when up-to-date translations are submitted.

I will send up a merge request today and then ping a reviewer about it
to move things along.

Thanks to Peter, Andreas, and Bastian for being persistent. :)

Control: severity -1 important

Can you please fix this? This is really annoying for all maintainers who care about the piuparts test results of their 
packages (all maintainers?). I always have to look more closely because I might have introduced a bug but every time for 
the past 4 months it was this issue that comes up. This will lead people to ignore piuparts and will introduce bugs.

Followup-For: Bug #1016014

The translated manpages are no longer installed since
85021c6ae7026f99f3a07d63df2646a88c6cc476, but debian/links still creates
the symlinks to them. You only need to keep the first three lines there.
