As a Debian Developer, I can't say I approve 😉

I guess that ninja-build or gmake are required. 

Anyway, I'll update Pan's README according to your feedback.

I think you need to logout/login for this change to propagate to all programs 
running in your session, including Pan.

Pan's language is controlled by LANGUAGE environment variable (at least on my 
Debian).

You should be able to run Pan in French with this command run from a terminal:

$ LANGUAGE=fr_FR.UTF-8 pan

or

$ export LANGUAGE=fr_FR.UTF-8
$ pan

The value of LANGUAGE can depend on the locale you have configured.

I have:

$ locale -a
C
C.utf8
en_GB.utf8
en_US.utf8
fr_FR.utf8
POSIX

Cool.

Thanks for your help
