With your scheme, how should the manual page "ld.so.8" (the manual
page for the Solaris run-time linker) be handled? Would it be
installed in @mandir@/so/man8/ld.8 by mistake? This is just an
example which shows that there may be pre-existing use of the naming
pattern.

Hello,
I would like to have better support for translated manual pages.
In a possible implementation,
man_MANS = foo.1 foo.de.1
would install `foo.1' as [EMAIL PROTECTED]@/man1/foo.1' and `foo.de.1' as
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@/de/man1/foo.1'. Would you consider a patch to that effect?
Right now, I use a separate directory and Makefile for each language.
The `Makefile.am' contains, for example
mandir = @mandir@/de
man_MANS = foo.1
I find that difficult to maintain. Is there an easier way, which
requires only one Makefile for all languages?
Thanks,
Martin
