Package: groff
Version: 1.18.1.1-12
Severity: normal
The groff package ships an nroff wrapper that tries to detect the
correct value for the -T option. This script should treat a ISO-8859-15
charmap the same way as ISO-8859-1.
Note that ISO-8859-15 is supposed to replace ISO-8859-1. The only
difference is that it defines a character Code für the EURO currency
symbol.
Hence I propose the following patch:
