First of all, this shouldn't be done at all. RPM does this automatically
for man pages.

However, similar references should be written as:

    ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}%{_mandir}/man?/*

because on some systems it's /usr/man and on some /usr/share/man

I'm ranting about this for the third time already, but obviously nobody
wants to take my spec files and make this as it should be.

Current rpm files do not work well with the latest Linux distros >= 7.x
as explained on the above web page.
