At the time I checked, if I remember correctly, all the files in the
Debian package were badly encoded, while only a part of them in the
upstream source. But I may be mistaking, I don't remember exactly. Maybe
I have checked different files upstream and in the Debian package.

Now this problem seems to be only upstream (can you forward it or do you
want me to do so?).

It seems to have been fixed in your last upload (2005-10-28).

Thanks for your answer.
