+<PRE>Samuel Verschelde a &#233;crit :
+&gt;<i> I used the --with-man option of the %find_lang RPM macro, but noticed that it
+</I>&gt;<i> adds all /usr/share/man/XX and /usr/share/man/XX/manX directories to the
+</I>&gt;<i> package, which, it seems, is bad.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Spturtle noticed that for example /usr/share/man/sr belongs to no other
+</I>&gt;<i> package and prefers that it belongs to too much packages than to no package at
+</I>&gt;<i> all.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I looked at what fedora does, and it looks like they added all those
+</I>&gt;<i> translated manpages dirs to the filesystem package ( see
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://sophie.zarb.org/explorer/usr/share/man/sr">http://sophie.zarb.org/explorer/usr/share/man/sr</A> and select fedora )
+</I>&gt;<i> It would solve the problem at hand and we could start cleaning wrong
+</I>&gt;<i> ownerships, such as those :
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://sophie.zarb.org/explorer/usr/share/man/fr">http://sophie.zarb.org/explorer/usr/share/man/fr</A> (select mageia)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> What do you think ?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Samuel
+</I>
+Just saw your post, and reflected a bit.
+/usr/share/man/man* belongs to filesystem (of course)
+On my system, most /usr/share/man/{lang}/man1/ belong to the same 2 packages
+(or just one of them).
+fr belongs to one more.
+sv to none.
+So most packages don't take ownership of /usr/share/man/{lang}/man*.
+And some do, even after the directory already exists.
+
+Having no owner seems fine to me, and belonging to the filesystem package seems
+the only reasonable alternative.
+Whatever everyone prefers, and is doable.
+
+Maybe we should use the buildsystem to enforce the chosen option ?
+Or just add it to rpmlint-mageia-policy ?
+
+(I'm curious as to what controls this.)
