net-tools translations conflict with upstream

During the upgrade of manpages-l10n to v4.15.0 for openSUSE (https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/994187), we detected a file conflict with net-tools:

### [install check & file conflicts for x86_64]

found conflict of man-pages-de-4.15.0-1.1.noarch with net-tools-2.1-1.11.x86_64
  /usr/share/man/de/man5/ethers.5.gz


### [install check & file conflicts for i586]

found conflict of man-pages-de-4.15.0-1.1.noarch with net-tools-2.1-1.11.i586
  /usr/share/man/de/man5/ethers.5.gz

The net-tools man pages (ethers.5, arp.8, ifconfig.8, netstat.8, plipconfig.8, rarp.8, route.8, slattach.8) translated in French and German appear to be already included in the net-tools packages for the following distributions:

Only ArchLinux seems not to package them.

I guess removing net-tools from upstream/<distribution>/packages.txt would be the way to go but some translations seem to have been started here in Spanish, Polish and Indonesian and are not present upstream:
