+Ref: policy 12.1
+Info: This package installs a manual page in a locale directory that
+ includes the country name.  A country name should not be included in the
+ directory name unless it indicates a significant difference in the
+ language.  The known cases where country names are appropriate are pt_BR,
+ zh_CN, zh_TW, and zh_SG.  Please file a bug against Lintian if this is
+ another case where a country name is appropriate.
