I guess from man/Makefile. There you have: 'export DDATE=`date`' and the
date command seems to produce the date in Swedish language. In the
debarchiver(.fr).1 target you import this variable. Maybe it would help
to change to: 'export DDATE=`LANG=C date`' or use e.g. the -I option of
date or a custom format.
