Just take a look in the /usr/share/misc/man.conf
There is the directive FHS set now as the default, which means that man
puts formatted versions in the /var/cache/man/ hirarchy. You can get the
old behaviour if you specify FSSTND.

Please remove your empty catX dirs from all of your packages and let the user
decide where to put formatted versions of man pages (if at all).
