Hi!
Which unicode package solved your issue?
If you use a more recent version of Ubuntu, it should already have the
"latex-cjk" package that I created for Debian.
You ought to install latex-cjk-chinese-arphic as well to get all the
fonts. These packages provide font definition (.fd) files for both
UTF-8 and a local encoding (GB2312 or Big5).

indeed, i needed this packages and also the latex-ucs packages.
in the synaptic package manager i firstly found cjk-latex.
so i thought i got everything - BUT after various tries i read the
description which tells you:
"installs all LaTeX CJK packages
This is a dummy package that allows you to smoothly upgrade
from the old cjk-latex to the current latex-cjk-common packages.
After the installation of the latex-cjk-common packages, you can
safely delete this package."
so this is a joke - or what?
secondly i found latex-cjk-all which tells you:
"installs all LaTeX CJK packages
This package will install all CJK packages.
You may also wish to install each package separately instead.
See the latex-cjk-common package for a detailed description."
and even funnier the latex-cjk-common package tells you:
"LaTeX macro package for CJK (Chinese/Japanese/Korean)
CJK is a macro package for LaTeX to enable typesetting in Chinese,
Japanese, Korean and Thai, and it supports Vietnamese through the
"vntex" macro. And you can still use Russian, Greek and other
languages in the same document.
It supports various CJK encodings, like UTF-8, Big5, GB, JIS, KS,
CNS (through CEF) and Emacs MULE.
This package will install the common files, as well as a few
GNU/Emacs Lisp files, and it provides support for furigana
("ruby text") and PinYin, either with or without tone marks."
so, nothing of this is true.
i had to install the formentioned packages as well.
so all does not mean all, sometimes it means nothing.
after everything is working for me, i had a big laugh,
but maybe the ones maintaining the ubuntu packages
can use my information to make it easier for the next
poor boy like me. it took me two days and i learned a lot.
thank you, cheers reinhard
