I have just compared the manpage lists in sysvinit, manpages-l10n and
systemd. AFAICS the duplicates are the 7 in systemd-sysv:

  init.1
  halt.8
  poweroff.8
  reboot.8
  runlevel.8
  shutdown.8
  telinit.8

src:sysvinit has manpage translations for 7 languages: de es fi fr hu id pl.

That seems a manageable number to handle through dpkg-divert.
