It seems more softwares prefer zh_CN not zh_CHS. It Should it keep confirm?

Hello @Freed-Wu, I'm sorry but I have no idea of what's the preferred approach here. On this topic, I'm just able of merging the pull requests that arrive. I'm thus closing this report because there is nothing else I can do about it. I hope you'll find the info elsewhere.

No serious, I have found:

export MANOPT=-Lzh_CN:zh_CHS:zh

Can find the manpage in the order of zh_CN, zh_CHS, zh, so it can work for po4a (use zh_CHS) and other programs (use zh_CN). I share the tips here and hope it can work for other one who want to use Chinese man pages.
