Since japanese console n frame buffer device have not developped enoughly, we may have to use kon2 & konfont for potato. locale-ja, kon2 / konfont, and man-db with the feature of display for Japanese manpages (we must express that there are strong needs the patch applied man-db package if the man-db package would not use the ukai's patch. Or we must provide separate man-db-ja package in potato) Off course, manpages-ja should be included. > 2.Japanese input methods: > Ex. > canna or wnn > kinput2 (needs X) I prefer skkinput (with canna). > 3.Japanese Editor/Pager: > Ex. > nvi-m17n | jvim I uploaded jvim.

It may be the problem of tcl/tk, perhaps you should not blame at the original XFree86 code.
