That is on purpose. manpages-l10n has various flavours, one is
tracking unstable, another one is tracking Buster (currently).
Additionally, when translations are moving upstream, they get
(manually, if needed be) removed from the version for unstable.
So two cases may occur:
1. The translation status is different for unstable and buster. Then
the localized man page may appear only in either unstable or buster.
2. Due to the moving of translations to upstream package, the
translation may be contained in buster (where upstream did not contain
the translation) and not in unstable (where upstream contains the
translation and so its no longer present in manpages-l10n).
