Package: python-apt Version: 0.7.5 Severity: normal Hello,
thanks for python-apt. I'm trying to use it to read translated descriptions to index them in apt-xapian-index, but I stumbled on this: $ ipython import locale import apt locale.setlocale(locale.LC_MESSAGES, "it_IT.UTF-8") c = apt.Cache() c["zip"].description gives: Out[11]: u'Acrhiviatore di file .zip\nQuesto\n' apt-cache show zip gives instead: Description: Acrhiviatore di file .zip Questo è il programma zip di InfoZIP. Produce file che sono pienamente compatibili con il programma popolare PKZIP; comunque, le opzioni a riga di comando non sono identiche. In altre parole, il risultato finale è lo stesso ma i metodi differiscono. :-) . Questa versione supporta la crittografia.
