Package: abcde
Version: 2.3.99.2-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi,

When submitting the entry to freedb, the latter complains "garbage
character on line foo", because no charset was precised by abcde. Abcde
should really set a charset, because else only ASCII chars will be
accepted. FYI, only ASCII, ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8 charsets are allowed.
The preferred solution would be to use "iconv -t UTF-8" to convert then
entry to UTF-8 and then set the charset to UTF-8 while submitting.

Regards,
Samuel
