Package: apt-listchanges
Version: 3.24
Severity: important

The current version of listchanges does not display changes correctly.
For example:
   --- <C3><84>nderungen f<C3><BC>r base-files ---
   base-files (12.3) unstable; urgency=high
   ...
   --- <C3><84>nderungen f<C3><BC>r exim4 (exim4-config exim4-base 
exim4-daemon-light eximon4) ---
   exim4 (4.96-10) unstable; urgency=medium
   ...

Please revert to use the proper locale of the terminal. This could also
be a security issue if less is not configured (as in my case) to display
this invalid UTF-something codes correctly.

Please note, my locale is not as reportbug shows down there UTF-8, it is
latin1 de_DE but reportbug has a long time bug that needs to be called
with all locales purged (so even that would be no UTF-8 as failed noted
by reportbug!)
