manpages-l10n: .po files ready for review



Hello,

although I am far from finished importing the old Spanish man pages,
you can start anytime with reviewing and completing the files. Once a
.po file has been committed to po/es/man*, it is to be considered as
finished from my side. After importing, I've fixed some changes in
formatting or any other changes which, for example, has been caused by
spelling corrections in the original text or by removing some parts
from the gettext messages.

Currently Po4a generates 103 translated man pages (which reach a
translation state of 80% or more), and there will be added a lot of
links when the package gets installed. The Spanish part is still
disabled in the Autotools toolchain, but I think we should activate it
as soon as possible. It's better to have 103 up-to-date translations
than nothing (as currently in Debian) or only outdated stuff (as
currently in the other distributions we support, except Archlinux,
which doesn't have a man-pages-es package at all).

We are planning the next release in october, maybe we should start
shipping the Spanish translations with that version, if you agree.

For upcoming releases, I could imagine to also import the content of
manpages-es-extra, but let's concentrate the effort to manpages-es for
the time being.

Best Regards,
Mario
