Package: fcmp Version: 1.18.20030311-2 Severity: normal Hi,
fcmp's debian/control seems to be encoded in ISO-8859-1 with non-ASCII characters. However, this makes data evaluation over the whole archive (e.g. Sources file) difficult since it's not possible to automatically detect encodings. The only compatible way to provide non-ASCII characters is to encode in UTF-8. The conversion can be done with e.g.: $ iconv -f ISO-8859-1 -t UTF-8 debian/control > debian/control.new $ mv debian/control.new debian/control The same applies to debian/changelog to ensure that the Maintainer field in both files is the same. See the debian-devel thread at http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2005/11/msg00482.html .
