Hi Markus, It shouldn't matter the builder's locale when building the Kernel documentation (or any other documents built from other git trees on other open source projects), as the Kernel's *.rpm document charset won't change, no matter on what part of the globe it was built. I vaguely remember about a change we made a couple of years ago in order to address this issue. Thanks, Mauro
