I have to eat my words and withdraw the comment above. After re-reading Pedro Villavicencio comments above, I re-checked what was installed and compared the 7.04 and 8.04 systems, and discovered poppler-data was not on the 8.04 system. So I installed it, and as if by miracle, Chinese appeared.

I should add, it is not a problem with rsync. The problem is that .gvfs is (apparently) not behaving like a normal dir. It does not say it is a link, but rsync seems to treat it like a lnk. Assuming it stands for gnome virtual file system, this is to be expected. -- rsync doesn't delete del
