I'm afraid you're wrong; `dpkg -L mpg123` tells me the man page lives
in /usr/share/man. There's a symlink on /usr/man as well, for
compatibility.
Maybe we're looking at a different version, but:
anthony@bohr:man$ dpkg -S /usr/man/man1/mpg123.1.gz
mpg123: /usr/man/man1/mpg123.1.gz
anthony@bohr:man$ dpkg -L mpg123

Description: MPEG layer 1/2/3 audio player
Mpg123 is a fast, free and portable MPEG audio player for Unix. It supports
MPEG 1.0/2.0 layers 1, 2 and 3 (those famous "mp3" files).
.
For full CD quality playback (44 kHz, 16 bit, stereo) a Pentium,
SPARCstation10, DEC Alpha or similar CPU is required. Mono and/or reduced
quality playback (22 kHz or 11 kHz) is even possible on 486 CPUs.
Packages.debain.org tells me unstable has a newer version than testing.
Perhaps that's whats wrong.
