Nested debiandoc2<something> scripts reverse the order of arguments
passed to nsgmls
The debiandoc2latex-based scripts debiandoc2info, debiandoc2latexdvi,
debiandoc2latexps and debiandoc2latexpdf process the "-n" option using
n ) nsgmls="-${opt} ${OPTARG} ${nsgmls}"
When trying to specify an output encoding as "-b utf-8", the first
script transforms the natural argument sequence
-n -b -n utf-8
into these arguments to debiandoc2latex
-n utf-8 -n -b
which in turn upholds the order of passed-on argumens and invokes
nsgmls with
utf-8 -b
which confuses nsgmls. The manpage does not claim that arguments of
multiple -n occurrences keep their order, but it is reasonable to
expect this.
The fix is simply to use
n ) nsgmls="${nsgmls} -${opt} ${OPTARG}"
