The problem is that a number of manpages still contain symlinks which
assume the old(er) directory structure. You would have to change them
yourself, for example /usr/share/man/man1/xtrapinfo.1x.gz is only one
line:

.so man1x/xtrap.1x

This line should be:

.so man1/xtrap.1x

You can also just wait; the bug is known and it will probably be fixed
soon. (I can't seem to connect to bugs.debian.org right now, therefore I
cannot provide a link. "xbase-clients" should be the relevant package.)
