(1) Convert the file encoding:
mv ja.po ja.po.orig
- iconv -f utf-8 -t euc-jp ja.po.orig > ja.po
+ iconv -f UTF-8 -t EUC-JP ja.po.orig > ja.po
(2) Rewrite charset declaration in the file:
Open ja.po find this line:
- "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8\n"
+ "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n"
You should change "charset" like this:
- "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=euc-jp\n"
+ "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=EUC-JP\n"
There are examples in the Makefile for the conversions already supported.
