This was sort of an aptitude bug; at that point, it shouldn't have been installing UTF-8 manual pages. However, man-db 2.5.0 begins the migration to UTF-8 manual pages, and in Hardy the Czech versions of aptitude(8) and groupmod(8) both display more or less properly. (Some accented characters in aptitude(8) are displayed as their nearest ASCII equivalents; this is ultimately due to lack of Unicode input support in groff, which is actively being worked on.)
Once I release man-db 2.5.1 in a few weeks' time, we'll begin the migration to UTF-8 manual pages in Debian in earnest. I'm not sure if this will land in time for Hardy, but at this point that shouldn't matter too much; your basic problem is fixed. I've filed http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=459776 asking for a Czech-speaking developer to package the set of Czech manual pages you mentioned. ** Changed in: man-db (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Colin Watson (kamion) Status: New => Fix Released -- inconsistent czech man pages - different encoding https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130377 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
