This build includes both "man-pages-fr" and "man-pages-extra-fr". -By default, the man pages are converted to ISO-8859-1 (aka Latin-1) -encoding, which works well with LANG=fr_FR. If you're using a UTF-8 -locale, and the pages don't display accented characters properly, -try rebuilding the package with UTF8=yes set in the environment. +By default, the man pages are installed as UTF-8. This should work +with man-db regardless of whether you use a Unicode (fr_FR.UTF-8) or +ISO-8859-1/Latin-1 (fr_FR) setting for LANG. + +If you set UTF8=no in the environment, the man pages will be converted +to Latin-1.
