 dpkg-divert --remove /usr/share/man/fr/man5/modules.5.gz
 rm /usr/share/man/man5/modules.5.gz
 rm /usr/share/man/man5/modules.modutils.5.gz
 rm /usr/share/man/fr/man5/modules.5.gz
 rm /usr/share/man/fr/man5/modules.modutils.5.gz
 apt-get install module-init-tools
 
 mv /etc/modules.backup_module-init-tools /etc/modules

I could solve the problem by hand with a simpler procedure:

rm /usr/share/man/man5/modules.5.gz
apt-get -f install

Then you have to install all forthcoming versions of module-init-tools 
with force, because there are the older entrys in the dpkg database
/var/lib/dpkg/diversions left...

Nice to know, but why is the file not deleted when modutils is removed?

Good question, but it's already too late. Like a bunch of people, I
removed modutils a while ago...
