I looked at fontmatrix with both apt-cache and aptitude and I don't see the
problem you mention. Both tools show complete description. You seem to be

is what I have under unstable. Please check that and specify exactly how you
use aptitude to show information about fontmatrix package that leads to this
problem.

The problem seems to be, that you are using non-ASCII in the description. If I look into the Packages(.gz) file directly, I see the following:

 Fontmatrix has a concept of [EMAIL PROTECTED]@~Y. This makes it really nice
 to group

What is that? Unicode? Doesn't reneder well if I set the encoding of my console to UTF8. Is that encoding you are using allowed per the spec?

Anyway, in case you want to work around the problem you should be able to replace those strange bytes above with a simple "'".
