As another example, bug#1009426 has the valid UTF-8 title xkcdpass: FTBFS: test case raises “TypeError: … missing 1 required positional argument: 'self'” which is rendered correctly in bugs.debian.org web pages. But UDD renders it as: RC bug marked as done but still affects unstable: #1009426: xkcdpass: FTBFS: test case raises â��TypeError: â�¦ missing 1 required positional argument: 'self'â�� -- \ “Injustice is relatively easy to bear; what stings is justice.” | `\ —Henry L.
