texlive-scripts fails to update

[Paulo Roberto Massa Cereda]

Hi friends,

Not exactly a good advice, but I made a backup of bin/x86_64-linux/man, 
removed it and then re-ran the update. Everything worked as expected, 
and bin/x86_64-linux/man and its files were regenerated successfully.

Thanks!

Paulo
