*** Please type your report below this line ***
(This package cause problems with:
Packages
Sources
)
Please check character encoding used in the Debian control files
of this package. As by now, in etch Packages/Sources file,
the segment of this package contains illegal for UTF-8 byte
sequence(s).
Likely, your files are in Latin-1 or same, instead of UTF-8,
and contain separate non-ASCII symbols. As a result,
the Packages/Sources file(s) is a bit corrupted, in Synaptic
info from incorrect fields is N/A.
Possibly this command will report error for you (substitute
right values):
sed -n '/^Package: THISPACKAGENAME$/,/^$/ p' \
/var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.debian.org_debian_dists_etch_main_BINA\
RIES-OR-SOURCES | iconv -t UTF32 > /dev/null
Usually, illegal secuences are located in 'Maintainers',
'Uploaders' or 'Description' fields.
