Apparently you are not using mandb, so the man program exposes a
different behaviour.

man-pages-de-0.4-nfs_typo.patch
man-pages-de-0.4-ps_space.patch

Good catch, both applied.

Any takers? The manpage from shadow is not long.

For reference:

Description of problem:
The german man-page to passwd(1) lists a parameter "-e" which would immidiately
expire the account and force the user to change password on next login.

Use 'chage -d 0 <username>' instead.

Problem is, the German translation originates in a different password
package. Nowardays all distributions use the shadow package as source.
