Bug#1107834: simutrans: german translations broken

[Christoph Schulz]

Package: simutrans
Version: 123.0.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n

Dear Maintainer,

thanks for maintaining simutrans for debian.

the german translations seem to be broken somehow:

* options, language, Deutsch
* observe for example Wähle Mission not being correct

it seems the files have been utf8-encoded -- but the translation files
internally claim a different encoding (ISO-8859-1).

christoph at chschulz08:~$ file /usr/share/games/simutrans/text/de.tab
/usr/share/games/simutrans/text/de.tab: Unicode text, UTF-8 text, with very
long lines (943)
christoph at chschulz08:~$ grep $_ -e Encoding
#                             Encoding: ISO-8859-1
