Essentially I have a new upstream version 4.9.2 ready to go (and possibly could ask upstream if we could prepare an even newer version). Given that we are in the Freeze I suggest that I do the upload this weekend, this gives ~ 12 days for manpages-es-extra to be processed. Btw. if you have any pending work for the spanish man pages, do not hesitate to contact Mario (upstream manpages-l10n maintainer) for inclusion.

Usefulness of manpages-es-extra
Hello Spanish translators, previously all languages (including spanish) had its dedicated man page translation project. This has changed, manpages-l10n now ships man pages translated into many languages, including spanish. There is, however, a quite old version of the previous efforts, i.e. manpages-es-extra. I questioned the usefulness in #980885, but did not get a reply from the maintainer. I intend to do another upload targeting bullseye and I will have to delete several updated translations because they will conflict with those from manpages-es-extra. Of course, only some man pages are updated, others (although very old) are only in manpages-es-extra. Is this the best situation for spanish users? (If not, I would need someone who could contact Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña for further discussion, he did not reply in #980885.) Btw. Mario, the upstream maintainer raised this issue in January already, but now the import happend and the man pages could be shipped.
