Bug#454025: Mass bug filing: debian/control must be utf8
Package: tetex-src
Severity: important
Blocks: #453954
One of the release goals for Lenny [1] is to make sure that debian/control and
debian/copyright are encoded in UTF-8 rather than in local encodings.
According to the lintian checks at [2] and [3], your package does not comply
with this goal yet, and uses a different encoding for debian/control
To fix this, simply filter the file through "iconv -f original_encoding -t utf8".
This mail is part of a mass bug filing to get all these bugs fixed.
Best regards,
Bas.
