Hm, I get what looks like well-formed Chinese...but then, I'm using UTF-8
instead of GBK. Actually, I have to admit I don't even know what GBK is :).
However, it looks like although I provided a way for translators to specify
the encoding of the help file, aptitude doesn't actually use this piece of
information; it just uses the current locale's CTYPE. Could you check whether
the attached patch clears up the problem?
Thanks,
Daniel
