 This problem can be reproduced very easily:

 1. Create a category using the language other than English. (In my case,
 Chinese)
 2. And create a category-slug.php file.
 3. And then you can see the Wordpress can not find the right template to
 load.

 This problem is caused by the function 'get_category_template' in the wp-
 includes/template.php file.

 Just change this line:

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 if ( ! empty( $category->slug ) ) {
                 $templates[] = "category-{$category->slug}.php";
                 $templates[] = "category-{$category->term_id}.php";
 }
 }}}


 To:


 {{{#!php
 <?php
 if ( ! empty( $category->slug ) ) {
                 $decoded_slug = urldecode($category->slug);
                 $templates[] = "category-{$decoded_slug}.php";
                 $templates[] = "category-{$category->term_id}.php";
 }
 }}}




 And this problem can be solved.
