Which is interesing for two reasons: - First, I have the file installed and don't have any problems with dhelp (although not with a bulgarian locale but UTF-8 should be UTF-8?!) - Second, at least on my system, it's plain ASCII: % file -i /var/lib/doc-base/documents/xterm-faq /var/lib/doc-base/documents/xterm-faq: text/plain; charset=us-ascii And the file itself looks completely innocent: #v+ Document: xterm-faq Section: Terminal Emulators Title: XTerm Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Author: Thomas Dickey Abstract: This document provides answers to frequently asked questions about the XTerm terminal emulator as it ships with the X.Org distribution of the X Window System. Format: HTML Index: /usr/share/doc/xterm/xterm.faq.html Files: /usr/share/doc/xterm/xterm.faq.html Format: text Files: /usr/share/doc/xterm/xterm.faq.gz #v- This is getting slightly mysterious. Could you please try `file -i /var/lib/doc-base/documents/xterm-faq' as well and open the file in a pager/editor to see if it's the same on your machine? If I'm understanding this correctly, the "origin" is /usr/share/doc-base/xterm-faq which has, according to /var/lib/dpkg/info/xterm.md5sums, a md5sum of 4f81e4dd965c918abc250beeb54131fb. Confirmed locally: % md5sum /usr/share/doc-base/xterm-faq 4f81e4dd965c918abc250beeb54131fb /usr/share/doc-base/xterm-faq Maybe you could check this out as well to rule out a corrupted file? > > - maybe try `LC_ALL=x LANG=x /etc/cron.weekly/dhelp' > > for different versions of x. > There is no difference.
