Package: xmlto
Version: 0.0.18-5
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Hello,
The apt-ftparchive man page is generated from an XML document. To
translate this document, the French Tranlation Team translated the
original XML, and then generated the man page from this translated XML
document.
This worked nice when the man page was generated by a Franch developer
(with an fr_FR.ISO-8859-1 locale, I supppose). But the man page of the
package is not that nice because it was generated by a buildd, with a C
locale (I suppose): all accents are converted to character entities (e.g.
é), which renders the man page hardly readable. (see #327456)
The attached patch adds a --keep-encoding to xmlto, which disables the
convertion of the XML document to the locale charmap before the xsl
processing.
Thanks in advance,
