 *********************************************
+        Known problems
+
+The latex-ucs package from sarge installs a link utf8.def -> utf8x.def
+in /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/ucs/. This link shadows the equally named
+file included in the LaTeX release <2003/12/01> in teTeX 3.0. In order
+to use the official utf8.def, which is more robost than the solution
+provided by latex-ucs, one can remove this link and update the filename
+database using mktexlsr. Caveat: The official utf8.def supports a
+smaller part of unicode than utf8x.def (mainly latin and cyrillic). If
+you make use of other parts of unicode, you have to use 'utf8x' as
+option for inputenc.sty explicitly (c.f. Bug #349274).
