Package: manpages-es Version: 1.55-4 Severity: important Tags: l10n Manpages in the manpages-es package are utf-8 encoded, but groff assumes latin1 for 'es' locales as input charset, so manpages-es are always incorrectly displayed. It doesn't mind if you have LANG=es_ES (latin1) or LANG=es_ES.UTF-8, because that only changes the output charset in groff.
I've patched groff to change the input charset if 'es' and utf-8 are detected, but that doesn't fix the problem if you don't use utf-8. I think the best solution is to encode all manpages-es manpages in latin1. Doing it with iconv is easy.
