    _______________________________________________________

Details:

The groff build system is installing the Swedish man page using the
wrong path and file name:
 usr/man/man7/groff_mmse.7

The file name and path needs to be:
 usr/man/sv/man7/groff_mm.7

man(1) and mandb(8) depend upon the file's path for proper encoding
conversion and discovery.

The location is part of the FHS[1] and man-db[2] specifications.
