These \*[variable] settings are provided by a separate file,
"config.man".  This file is sourced at the very start
(".so config.man"), and is generated when you build the
package, so that these settings are customised to your
system configuration.

So these should all be fine, and they are just filesystem
paths which don't require translation, so I would not worry
about them!

Many thanks for taking the time to do this, it's very
much valued and appreciated.


Kind regards,
