Package: release-notes

The PDF file at https://www.debian.org/releases/jessie/i386/release-notes.en.pdf
has headings which have letter substitutions a->thorn b->a c->b etc.

The french version is similar. I haven't checked other languages.
The data on page one is July 5, 2015. (256492 bytes.)

Cheers,
David.

Julien's commit fixed the problem for the jessie release-notes, so I close
all the relevant bugs with this mail.

Beside this, the same bug has to be fixed in the trunk branch of 
release-notes as well, to make sure the problem does not re-occur after
the release of Stretch.
To keep track of this, and as a reminder, I have filed a new bugreport,
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=815691
