Re: man-db locale support



   As result, people (depending on their's tastes) use something like:

       LANG=ru_RU.KOI8-R
       LANG=ru_RU.CP1251
       LANG=ru_RU.IBM866
   or just
       LANG=ru

in fact, though, people only use the first option.  one can't use
Debian with LANG=ru_RU.CP1251.

   OK.  What I want to say?  All these encodings are quite different.

note, however, that the language is the same.  so the possible
solution in to transcode files at installation time.  this way,
translators can write whatever they like, and users can have all their
docs for one language in a single directory.

   (who follow the above mentioned standard and) who do not have
   proper settings for displaying unit.

those who follow the above mentioned standard, *do* have proper settings B-/
