Package: debhelper Version: 7.0.15 Severity: minor
The html2text tool cannot handle multibyte charactes such as UTF-8. Since UTF-8 is the default encoding on Debian this tool is pretty much useless. If html converter is really required for debhelper a working one should be chosen. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.3 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'testing'), (300, 'unstable'), (290, 'stable-i386'), (280, 'testing-i386'), (270, 'unstable-i386'), (1, 'experimental-i386'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages debhelper depends on: ii binutils 2.18.1~cvs20080103-7 The GNU assembler, linker and bina ii dpkg-dev 1.14.25 Debian package development tools ii file 4.26-1 Determines file type using "magic" ii html2text 1.3.2a-5 advanced HTML to text converter ii man-db 2.5.2-4 on-line manual pager ii perl 5.10.1-8 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii po-debconf 1.0.15 manage translated Debconf template debhelper recommends no packages.
