Bug#5223: manpages-fr must use $LANG & co



Package: manpages-fr
Version: 0.1-1
     
When you install manpages-fr with dpkg you can read this message:

> To enable these manpages prepend '/usr/man/fr_FR' at the beginning of
> your $MANPATH environment variable.
> The current value of your $MANPATH variable is:
> []                                                                   

I don't think it's the good way to use locale manpages, because
there are special environment variables to keep locale informations:
LANG=fr_FR
LC_COLLATE="fr_FR"
LC_CTYPE="fr_FR"
LC_MONETARY="fr_FR"
LC_NUMERIC="fr_FR"
LC_TIME="fr_FR"
LC_MESSAGES="fr_FR"
LC_ALL=

Indeed, if you have LANG=fr_FR, you can read french manpages.

(manpages-fr must provide links to enable french manpages 
with fr_CH, fr_BE etc...)
