Package: libyaml-perl
Version: 0.62-1
Severity: minor
The following manpages in your package appear to be UTF-8 encoded:
/usr/share/man/man3/YAML.3pm.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/YAML::Base.3pm.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/YAML::Dumper.3pm.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/YAML::Dumper::Base.3pm.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/YAML::Error.3pm.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/YAML::Loader.3pm.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/YAML::Loader::Base.3pm.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/YAML::Marshall.3pm.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/YAML::Node.3pm.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/YAML::Tag.3pm.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/YAML::Types.3pm.gz
According to Colin Watson, "With some exceptions for Far Eastern
languages, manual pages should not at present be encoded using UTF-8.
As such, it's reasonable to file bugs against packages attempting to
use UTF-8 where it is not yet supported."
Hence I'm filing this bug. The solution for now seems to be to encode
the pages as 7-bit ASCII, using the appropriate *roff sequences to
produce accented characters.
