That's odd because the accented character is there in the .mo (in CP1252 though) $ hexdump -C /usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo | grep -A2 1d330 0001d330 46 0a 00 4d 75 65 73 74 72 61 20 6c 61 20 69 6e |F..Muestra la in| 0001d340 66 6f 72 6d 61 63 69 f3 6e 20 64 65 20 3c 66 69 |formaci.n de <fi| 0001d350 63 68 65 72 6f 28 73 29 3e 20 6f 62 6a 65 74 6f |chero(s)> objeto| $ LANG=fr_FR objdump --help | head -2 Usage: objdump <options> <fichiers> Afficher les informations depuis les <fichiers> objet. When I looked at the firts line, I thought "French isn't working either" :) (That should be Utilisation: ...) $ cygcheck -l binutils | grep binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/da/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/fi/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/id/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/ja/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/ro/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/ru/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/rw/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/sk/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/sv/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/tr/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/uk/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/vi/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/zh_CN/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/zh_TW/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo /usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo is conspicuously absent. The Russian messages in /usr/share/locale/ru/LC_MESSAGES/binutils.mo appear to be encoded in UTF-8; I don't know what iconv is supposed to do when LANG=ru_RU.cp1251 but outputting UTF-8 to a terminal expecting CP1251 doesn't sound like the right thing to do. -- Life is complex, with real and imaginary parts.
