Hi,

The Japanese manpage apt(8) is found to be UTF-8-encoded[1].  Since
manpages do not have encoding information, Japanese manpages under
/usr/share/man/ja are all handled as EUC-JP-encoded files by the
man-db program[2], and UTF-8-encoded ones cannot displayed correctly
(nearly all the characters turn into garbage).  I've created a patch
to fix it and attach here, with the severity "important" since
manpages are important resources for users.

For more information, see my report #391061 for the aptitude package.

Thanks,

-nori
