For example: mpi-selector-1.0.3-alt2 man-1.6f-alt11 gnupg-1.4.11-alt1 Compare which file (its lnaguage) is selected before the installation of mpi-selector and after. The difference is due to MANPATH set in /etc/profile.d/ : [imz@cerob ~]$ LANG=C man -d gpg Reading config file /etc/man.conf found man directory /usr/share/man found man directory /usr/X11R6/man found man directory /usr/local/man found man directory /usr/local/share/man found manpath map /bin --> /usr/share/man found manpath map /sbin --> /usr/share/man found manpath map /usr/bin --> /usr/share/man found manpath map /usr/sbin --> /usr/share/man found manpath map /usr/local/bin --> /usr/local/share/man found manpath map /usr/local/sbin --> /usr/local/share/man found manpath map /usr/X11R6/bin --> /usr/X11R6/man found manpath map /usr/bin/X11 --> /usr/X11R6/man found manpath map /usr/bin/mh --> /usr/share/man using /usr/bin/less -isR as pager using /usr/bin/less -isR as browser using /bin/cat to dump HTML pages as text path directory /home/imz/bin is not in the config file and we found no man directory nearby path directory /bin is in the config file adding /usr/share/man to manpath path directory /usr/bin is in the config file path directory /usr/local/bin is in the config file adding /usr/local/share/man to manpath path directory /usr/X11R6/bin is in the config file adding /usr/X11R6/man to manpath path directory /usr/games is not in the config file and we found no man directory nearby adding mandatory man directories adding /usr/local/man to manpath no cat page stored because of nonstandard line length using default preprocessor sequence man: not executing command: (cd "/usr/share/man" && man-source '/usr/share/man/man1/gpg.1.bz2' '188' '1100i' | /usr/bin/nroff -S -p -t -Dkoi8-r -mtty -mandoc | /usr/bin/iconv -c -f UTF-8 | /usr/bin/less -isR) [imz@cerob ~]$ echo $MANPATH [imz@cerob ~]$ sudo apt-get install mpi-selector [sudo] password for imz: Чтение списков пакетов...

I think it's NOTABUG/WONTFIX as relying on translations with MPI isn't gonna help much anyways.
