I have changed all my locale, kde and email settings to UTF-8 as I do some internationalisation work. However there are some things that still do not work quite correctly. man pages and KWrite corrupts sometimes.
gcc − GNU project C and C++ compiler

Does anyone know if this is working well in cooker?
I have tried changing /etc/man.config, but really its guess work as I'm not sure where man determines the charset from.
in /usr/share/man there is only formated copy of the man pages in english, so in this case I think man should be conifgured to convert those iso-8859-15 files (or whatever they are) to UTF-8 for the shell.
The work around is to type LC_CTYPE=en_GB before running man, this is not an ideal solution.
If Mandrake can get this perfect I think it is a big selling point.
