Package: python-html2text
Version: 3.200.3-2
I use rss2email to parse RSS feeds and read the generated emails with
Icedove.
rss2email is set to convert HTML to plain text:
HTML_MAIL = 0
Icedove is set to view message body as plain text.
Some white spaces in RSS feeds are changed to  _place_holder;
The resulting text is hard to read.
Here is an example from the page:
http://www.nextinpact.com/news/90246-twitch-et-valve-veulent-plus-transparence-sur-contenus-sponsorises.htm
The RSS feed contains only the first paragraph of the web page.
The resulting text in Icedove is:
[...] Twitch et Valve semblent vouloir _place_holder;combattre.
What I expect is:
[...] Twitch et Valve semblent vouloir combattre.
I see some references to  _place_holder; in python-html2text source
code but can't understand the goal of these.
I run an uptodate Wheezy:
Debian 3.2.60-1+deb7u3 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Python 2.7.3-4+deb7u1
Icedove 24.8.1-1~deb7u1
rss2email 1:2.71-1
python-html2text 3.200.3-2
python-feedparser 5.1.2-1

Closing due to inactivity.
This really is an upstream bug, and this probably isn't the place to get
to the bottom of it.
Feel free to reopen with more information.
