fixed in latest versions that do transliteration
maybe not. cdrecord is not part of the man-page package. the owner of the component needs to clean the page so that no non-ascii characters appear in the man page that is installed in /usr/share/man. It is ok to put the original ISO-8859-1 charset/enc in /usr/share/man/en
