[plug] Debian character encoding problems

Yeah, this is what I did but to no avail.

I can see the umlauts etc in the java source file in both vi and
JBuilder, but when I run it doesn't display them. You are also supposed
to be able to set the character encoding in java via a command line
argument but that doesn't make any difference. Could it be possible I'm
missing a native library? To get java running I had to create a link
from the current libstc++-libc6.2.2 to match the library name it was
expecting.

Thanks,

Kirk
