I did mention the web page in my email stilll included below. The webpage
contains a clear copy of the attachment which is why I mentioned it.
It also contains a corrupt copy.
I've seen, that the copy is correct:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=526875
Are you sure, that you are using UTF-8?
Yes, I am using UTF-8, but my browser uses the setting on the HTML
page which is UYT-8. Scroll on down to the (second) copy prefixed by
|, which has the u-umlaut replaced by space (and so on). It was that
copy that was forwarded.

It is not clear whether you are talking to me or to Chris? .
Chris.
Sorry, I've translated many Debian-Pakages and I've found "vr" on the Debian
Website. Is there any difference between "R documented procedures" and other
translations?
R is a separate project from Debian: translation procedures are in its
manuals and on developer.r-project.org.
Greetings,
Chris
