[debian-devel:10533] Fw: Re: Bug#46600: man-db: Japanese manuals are available

[NABETANI Hidenobu <nabetani@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

鍋谷です。

man-db のメンテナーに日本語マニュアルを入れてくださいという
bug report をしたところ、次のメッセージを受け取りました。

できれば、正確なフォローができる方にお願いしたいです。

 o 日本語マニュアルは .../man/ja/... にインストールする
 o LANG は ja, ja_JP, ja_JP.ujis どれでも日本語マニュアルが読める
   べきだ

でいいですか？

done, thanx.

Just a question.
Where do you prefere to see those pages?
in .../man/ja/... or in .../man/ja_JP.ujis/...

Question is not easy, as in the first case you can read them setting
LANG to ja or ja_JP or ja_JP.ujis , while in the second case you MUST
set LANG to ja_JP.ujis .

Or do you think that I should patch man-db to permit also the
discovering of pages in ja_JP.ujis when the LANG is set to "ja"?

there is a discussion running on debian-i18n about this.
