Package: pal
Version: 0.4.3-1
Severity: normal

        Hi!

 When using the pal -m feature, it shows me broken encoded strings:

* 2008-12-08 Austria: MariM-CM-$ EmpfM-CM-$ngnis

 The same entry in pal -r 100:

* 2008-12-08 Austria: Mariä Empfängnis

 The entry is from (my local) austria.pal which is utf8 encoded, so it's
not related to Bug #499389.

 Btw., there is even a problem in the header of pal -m, so no need to
dig around with any special crafted pal file:

pal 0.4.3 - 'h' fM-CM-<r Hilfe, 'q' zum Beenden.

 That should read "für Hilfe" instead of "fM-CM-<r Hilfe". No single
8bit character is displayed here. Calling pal -m with LC_ALL=C corrects
this problem, though it doesn't give translated help.

 Thanks for taking a look. :)
