I found the problem in 
https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/cron/-/blob/master/parts/7doc line 206:

The if clause

	if [ "$(basename $page $lang.html)" = "$(basename $page)" ]; then
            pagecopy2 $lang "$pagefile" "$destdir/$(basename $page .html).$lang.html"
        ...

checks if the files to be processed are html files with language extensions,
otherwise it skips the file in question.
In case of the file "sect.dist-upgrade.html" the 'if' does not give an EQUAL,
because the "de.html" at the end is truncated ("de" is seen as language extension,
not as part of the base-filename). That's why that file is not copied and is
therefore missing on the webpage.

So adding a dot like
-	if [ "$(basename $page $lang.html)" = "$(basename $page)" ]; then
+	if [ "$(basename $page .$lang.html)" = "$(basename $page)" ]; then
ensures, that only language extensions are truncated, and everything works
as expected.
