Package: apt Version: 0.7.6 Severity: minor The following manpages in your package appear to be UTF-8 encoded:
/usr/share/man/man8/apt-secure.8.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. -- Package-specific info: -- (/etc/apt/preferences present, but not submitted) -- -- (/etc/apt/sources.list present, but not submitted) -- -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (700, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages apt depends on: ii debian-archive-keyring 2007.07.31 GnuPG archive keys of the Debian a ii libc6 2.6.1-1+b1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.2.1-4 GCC support library ii libstdc++6 4.2.1-4 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 apt recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
