Bug#623039: incompatible with utf8x inputenc

[Denis Laxalde <denis.laxalde@mcgill.ca>]

Hi,

The biblatex documentation is quite clear about the incompatibility:
| 1.5.4 Incompatible Packages
[…]
| ucs   The ucs package provides support for UTF-8 encoded input.
|       Either use inputenc's standard utf8 module or a Unicode enabled
|       engine such as XeTeX or LuaTeX instead.

Also, according to the upstream author, biblatex has never been
compatible with ucs. The error message was just added recently. See

Agreed nevertheless.


Cheers.
