Hello Leo,
thank you for the hint. It works for me. I do not get an error and I can
read the German translation on the command line on my Linux system. What
is the error you get?
But there is another problem. The html file and the pdf file show the
correct German umlauts, but not the info file. Perhaps I have to provide
an UTF coding for the text in addition?
This has be done for the other languages too.
