    debian: Install optional localized man pages with dh_installman · 01e66a1a
    Guillem Jover authored
    We need to use a dh command so that debhelper can track which files got
    installed.
    
    We use the double globs, so that when a localized man page does not get
    generated, we do not get failures from debhelper, as at least the
    non-localized man page will always match.
    
    We were doing this already some time ago, but dh_installman did not
    handle localized man pages correctly and was overwriting them with the
    last match. Now that this is fixed, we switch back to using the globs
    within brace expansion to simplify the support and make use of a dh
    command.
    
    This reverts commit 806dfa82.
