Comment 2 Bastien Nocera 2004-10-13 16:05:11 UTC 
RHEL3 bug, not Fedora Core.
Comment 3 Eido Inoue 2004-10-13 18:44:05 UTC 
It's also built into U5
Comment 4 Petr Šimon 2005-03-31 06:18:11 UTC 
It should be pointed out, that Japanese man pages will stay in eucjp, because
that's the default encoding for Japanese on RHEL3 systems.
