Package: translate

Version: 1.1.3
Severity: normal

I usually have latin1-Encoding everywhere. The output of translate is
good but the input does not allow latin1-umlauts like ä, ö, ü, ... I can
input them but they always returns nothing.

Older versions worked well but I cannot say, when the incompatibility
was implemented. At least version 0.6 worked well.

The strange thing is, that I see no reason for the bug. Even when I do
`bash -x /usr/bin/translate ...` it DOES iconv my input. But if I just
do `/usr/bin/translate ...`, it doesn't. This bug is a full riddle for
me.

As translate is of mayor use for me so please reallow non-UTF-8 input.
