Thanks, but Mirko was correct in contacting debian-www in the first
place. The Debian package contains the German translation:

$ apt-file show debian-handbook|grep dist-upgrade.html
[...]
debian-handbook: /usr/share/doc/debian-handbook/html/de-DE/sect.dist-upgrade.html

There's some cron job setup by Osamu that extracts the files and renames them to
follow the foo.<lang>.html scheme. It looks like that script is failing (or has
failed last time only, I don't know) to create sect.dist-upgrade.de.html for some
reason.

(Leaving the rest of the mail for Osamu)
