[debian-devel:17678] Forward: Re: Bug#552201: groff-base: Japanese manpages are shown with too wide spaces



武藤@Debianぷろじぇくとです。

現在squeeze/sidで日本語のmanページに対してmanを実行すると、場所により
ASCII文字/日本語文字間で妙にスペースが空いた状態になると思います。

これまでのCJKパッチがいろいろ中途半端なので削除したというのが主因なの
ですが、それに代わるcharclassというものをメンテナのcjwatsonが開発を
試みたものの、頓挫します。

詳細についてはBug#552201をご覧いただくとして、どなたか開発の引き継ぎ
or 新しい手法の実装にチャレンジしてみる方はいませんか?

Indeed so. My initial work on this is in
https://code.launchpad.net/~cjwatson/groff/charclass, but I haven't had
any time to work on it recently.
