Not sure why you want to wait longer. It only gets worse. The German
description in app-admin/metadata.xml needs an "iconv -f utf8 -t latin1"
to get it fixed (automatically doable), but the Spanish one needs this
treatment twice already... These numbers will only keep growing. Of
course since it's you who's going to be doing it, it's your call to do
it the way that you find to be the most convenient.
