Package: licensecheck Version: 3.0.29-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
licensecheck seems to generate bad output for unicode files such as: https://sources.debian.net/src/sagemath/7.6-2/sage/src/doc/ja/tutorial/tour_rings.rst An example command line is: $ licensecheck -l250 --deb-machine --merge-licenses src/doc/ja/tutorial/tour_rings.rst I get glyphs like <U+008D>ã<U+0081> suggesting that maybe it is getting utf-8-encoded twice.
