Package: npm2deb
Version: 0.2.5-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
npm2deb fails to handle unicode characters.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
npm2deb search invert-kv
* What was the outcome of this action?
npm2deb crashed with error:
'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 102: ordinal not in range(128)
The invert-kv package contains a non ASCII character in description which
npm2deb fails to handle.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
npm2deb should not fail.

It was an environment specific issue.
System's locale was not configured, so `preferredencoding` defaulted to
ascii.
The issue has been resolved by configuring system locale.
