Hello,

after following the quick install instructions for CentOS 6.2 on an x86_64 system, I get

# setup-kolab
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/setup-kolab", line 29, in <module>
    import pykolab
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pykolab/__init__.py", line 43, in <module>
    from pykolab.conf import Conf

    _ = lambda x: gettext.ldgettext(domain, x)
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/gettext.py", line 540, in ldgettext
    codeset=_localecodesets.get(domain))

    t = _translations.setdefault(key, class_(open(mofile, 'rb')))
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/gettext.py", line 180, in __init__
    self._parse(fp)
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/gettext.py", line 339, in _parse
    tmsg = unicode(tmsg, self._charset)
LookupError: unknown encoding: CHARSET

Any idea on what's going wrong? I tested on a fresh CentOS install.

Best regards
