Extra "be" in "can be also be".

Hi,

Here's a small patch for the dpkg manual, fixing a typo I noticed
while looking at the relationship between dpkg and dpkg-deb. The
translations should probably also be smudged to avoid seeming out of
date, but my knowledge of po4a isn't up to it. I hope it is
nevertheless of some use.

Regards,
Jonathan

The easiest way to avoid the unneeded fuzzies, is to fix the string
also in the .po files, so that when msgmerge gets called it does not
mark them as fuzzy as the strings match. It also avoids having to
discern which strings were fuzzy beforehand.

Pushed with the typos fixed in the translations, thanks!

regards,
guillem
