Package: debianutils
Version: 2.30
Severity: minor

run-parts man page uses word "letter" ambiguously. The man page says:

    If neither the --lsbsysinit option nor the --regex option is given
    then the names must consist entirely of upper and lower case
    letters, digits, underscores, and hyphens.

It's rather ASCII-age definition, ǯ and δ are a letters too but they
don't work with run-parts (nor should they). I suggest that the man page
is changed to speak about characters a-z and A-Z instead of letters.
