Hi there!

I've came across a problem triggered when the 'kk_KZ.RK1048' encoding is
chosen.
It's not a reprepro bug, but help2man's.

```
$ LC_ALL=kk_KZ.RK1048 help2man
Unknown encoding 'RK1048' at /usr/bin/help2man line 56.
```

I've already reported it to help2man
(https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=894126) but it seems
to be a perl problem.

As a workaround, i've forced LC_ALL to C on the debian/rules script, but
I think this is something to be taken into consideration.
The problem on this is that it's triggered randomly, when this encoding
is chosen
(https://github.com/ReproducibleBuilds/reprotest/blob/master/reprotest/build.py#L335)

The problem itself can be found on the following pipeline:
