Bug#344304: qa.debian.org: no charset specified when browsing news

[Anton Martchukov <anton@martchukov.com>]

Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: important
Tags: l10n


When browsing news in Package Tracking System, e.g.

http://packages.qa.debian.org/r/rus-ispell/news/1.html

there is no charset specified neither in HTTP headers, nor in META tag
within the web page. So, non-ASCII characters are not displayed
correctly.

The solution may be to output UTF-8 encoding by default in Content-Type
HTTP header. Documents that use a non-UTF-8 encoding can override this
using the META tag in the HTML document's header.
