No. I think we would have to arrange that Japanese locales get a copy of kon2 installed and run base-config inside it. The trouble with using bterm is that it requires everything to be in UTF-8. At the moment at least, this isn't typically the case for latin languages. In the closed world of dbootstrap it's no problem to recode all the strings while building the boot-floppies, but at the time base-config runs the strings will be coming directly from random packages. I had the impression that even with Japanese most strings were still coded in EUC-JP rather than Unicode, but maybe I was wrong about that. p. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
