Using POPT_fprintf(), all umlauts are broken when doing "[EMAIL PROTECTED]
rpm --help" or "[EMAIL PROTECTED] kudzu --help". Whenever an umlaut should be
displayed, it isn't and the rest of the line as well. Instead the next line
is displayed. So it looks like to me, that POPT_fprintf() has problems with
non-ASCII characters when the locale isn't a UTF-8 one.

See http://rpm5.org/community/popt-devel/0038.html and following of this
thread (e.g. http://rpm5.org/community/popt-devel/0043.html). Maybe you can
then see what my problem is.

I've no matter about the goption/popt handling at all, I'm just seeing this
problem with popt 1.13 on a konsole without GNOME, Bonobo or whatelse.
