Bug#1065396: ghostscript: Coordinate uploads for German man page transfer

Package: ghostscript
Version: 10.0.0~dfsg-11+deb12u3
Severity: normal

Hello Steve,
ghostscript used to contain German man pages, however, they were not
properly maintained. As detailed in [1] ghostscript removed the 
German man pages from its git repository on January 4th 2023.

So the files are gone since Version 10.01.0rc1.

I imported them into manpages-de and will start shipping them with the
next release.

As per transition rules [2] you will need to add 
Breaks: manpages-l10n (<4.22) 
in your debian/control.

I will then add
Breaks: ghostscript (<<?)
Replaces: ghostscript (<<?)

In my debian/control. I'm a bit lost about the correct version,
though. So which version is best for "?"

I intend to upload around March 23 and I will provide a backport to
stable (without these translations, of course).
