LaTeX complained about misconstructed UTF-8 entities in the french
translation. This was due to a mixture of Latin-1 and UTF-8-encoding.
Apparently, most files are encoded in Latin-1, but fr.po is (in its
translation part) UTF-8. po4a then mixed Latin-1 with UTF-8 into one
file, so no matter how further processing went, something would go
wrong.
I have changed po4a.cfg to define local files as latin-1, too. The
generated file is now entirely Latin-1 and not mixed.
Further down the road, the debiandoc2<latex-stuff> scripts need to
know that the files are Latin-1, not UTF. I have changed the mapping
in the Makefile for that.
Since changes in the po4a configuration file invalidate all derived
documents, I added it to the prerequisites.
Migration to UTF-8 would be a more perfect solution from my point of
view, but I would take that on only after migration to DocBook.
