This seems to be a miss-print in the English version too. Compare this
man page entry from Ubuntu 7.04...

"
SOURCES.LIST.D
       The /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory provides a way to add sources.list 
entries in seperate files that end with sources.list file.
"

...with this one from http://linux.die.net/man/5/sources.list:

"
Description
The package resource list is used to locate archives of the package 
distribution system in use on the system. This control file is located in 
/etc/apt/sources.list and additionally any files ending in .list in 
/etc/apt/sources.list.d are included.
"

I suspect someone made a bit of a slip during a cut'n'paste edit. This
may affect quite a few translations.
