Package: hyphen-fr Version: 1:3.3.0-3 Severity: normal The file /usr/share/hyphen/hyph_fr.dic is apparently intended to be interpreted as ISO8859-15, but is currently marked as being encoded in ISO8859-1.
In particular, the file contains several occurrences of byte 0xbd, evidently intended to be interpreted as œ (oe) as per ISO8859-15, whereas 0xbd in ISO8859-1 is ½. E.g. the first occurrence of this byte is in the line ".dé2s1œ", which would make sense for indicating hyphenations such as dés-œuvré, whereas "dés-½..." is not a useful hyphenation. Changing from ISO8859-1 to ISO8859-15 has no effect on the file other than for the 0xbd character, as can be tested by doing recode ISO8859-1 < hyph_fr.dic > a && recode ISO8859-15 < hyph_fr.dic > b && diff -du a b Accordingly, please change the first line of the file from ISO8859-1 to ISO8859-15.
