This might help you:
Package: euro-support-x
Description: Use euro character in your X environment
This package provides information on how to use the euro
character in your Debian GNU/Linux system's X environment as well as
dependancies that assure you have the needed software installed.
.
The 'euro-test' script will tell you if your Debian system needs
configuring in order to display the euro char.
