Hmm. Just noticed these in my logcheck mail:
brltty[11186]: Could not load a braille font for charset ISO8859-1
brltty[11186]: Could not load a braille font for charset JISX0208.1983-0
brltty[11186]: Could not load a braille font for charset KSC5601.1987-0
brltty[11186]: Could not load a braille font for charset GB2312.1980-0
brltty[11186]: Could not load a braille font for charset JISX0201.1976-0
brltty[11186]: Could not load a unicode font for charset KSC5601.1987-0
brltty[11186]: Could not load a unicode font for charset GB2312.1980-0

What exactly is missing here? Do we need to add something in the installer 
to support languages other than English? Could CJK languages (Chinese, 
Japanese, Korean) be supported as well in theory?
