These are not non-standard locations.
They are the standard locations for non-english languages.

/usr/share/man/man[0-8] is the standard location for english manpages
(not /usr/share/man[0-8] as you say in the commit message), but your patch
gets that right.

FYI, this patch does not fix one standing issue with compressing manpages:
symlinks to manpages are not fixed to point to the compressed one.

Thanks,
Isaac Dunham
