Package: kio-apt
Version: 0.13.2-2

Using an utf8-based system in german language, the umlauts in apt's localized 
package descriptions are not displayed correctly:

example output:

        autodns-dhcp  Automatische DNS-Updates für DHCP

Changing line 40 of aptcache.cpp from

        buffer += QString::fromLatin1(input, input_len);

to

        buffer += QString::fromUtf8(input, input_len);

resolves this issue *for me*. But I don't know if that's the best / most 
general way of doing so. Maybe the system's standard encoding has to be 
retrieved somehow...
