In this context, I'd like to point out the release critical bug that has
removed manpages-zh from sid (though it is still in sarge):

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=267236

To re-cap, manpages-zh had a source package cman, then a new package
cman was uploaded with the same source package name, so it was treated
as a new version of the old source package, removing manpages-zh from
sid. Fixing this requires re-packaging either cman (the binary package)
or manpages-zh. If the former is re-packaged, then the latter needs to
be re-uploaded as well, so it gets back to sid. It might therefore be
easiest to re-package manpages-zh.

Any opinions? Anyone who understands Chinese willing to do the
packaging? (I don't understand Chinese. I might be willing to sponsor an
upload, but even that would be best done by someone who understands
Chinese.)
