Hello Ryan,
Sorry, I have some major assignments and midterm very soon, so I won't have
time to look into this in detail. Hence I have taken the liberty to forward
it to the Debian Chinese Project discussion lists.
I recall that Roger So and others have pointed out problems w.r.t. Netscape
4.75's CJK patches and the new glibc2.2 locale support, and Roger has
offered a patch (which he might have already sent to you if he wasn't too
lazy <grin, duck, run>). But yes, please check with him about the details.
If 4.76 is a security update, you might need to build one for potato
(glibc-2.1.3), and another one for woody (glibc-2.1.94).

Probably changing all the version number fields would be sufficient. There
are about 3 of them in each resource file IIRC.

Dunno. Chinese: Ours is already the latest. ;-) As for Japanese and
Korean: Ask on debian-i18n and debian-japanese. :-)

Nice! Good luck! :-)
