Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
When reading the changelog.Debian file with character map
ISO-8859-1, three bytes are sometimes shown instead of one. Using
non-letter characters with the UTF-8 encoding is a misuse of it.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I expect simple punctuation marks (for example apostrophe, quotation
mark, and ' - ' (or '--', em-dash)), which is readable by any encoding
that supports the ASCII character set. (em-dash is usually used
without surrounding space, en-dash with it.)
That is future proof and clear enough. This file does not contain
any typesetting commands to prepare it for being printed in a book as a
regular text.
