The best way to do gettext in Python is to do:
gettex
Hi,
While I was hacking at debconf, I noticed that
python's gettext function returns strings encoded in the
original encoding; which will appear as garbage on

With python2.4, lgettext is added, which seems to do
the right thing and return the string encoded in the
current CODESET.
