Package: heirloom-mailx Version: 12.3-3 Severity: normal Apticron stopped working for me, instead I got mails from anacron with the following content:
/etc/cron.daily/apticron: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character . . . message not sent. "//dead.letter" 1285/51195 run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/apticron exited with return code 1 This seems to be caused by UTF-8 encoded characters in the debian changelogs (to be sent by apticron via mailx). There was no default locale configured for root (and thus POSIX assumed). Since I am not sure that this behaviour is expected or wanted, I am filing this bug. Can be worked around easily by using an UTF-8 locale as system default. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21.3 (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages heirloom-mailx depends on: ii base-files 4.0.2 Debian base system miscellaneous f ii libc6 2.7-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libkrb53 1.6.dfsg.3~beta1-2 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8g-4 SSL shared libraries heirloom-mailx recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
