Hi Andrius,
Many thanks for your reply. I tried to figure out why lintian is not going nicely adding also a debian/source/lintian-overrides file in my packaging. $ cat cherrytree/debian/source/lintian-overrides # Ignore missing sources errors for test files. source: source-is-missing tests/data_данные/* $ file cherrytree/debian/source/lintian-overrides cherrytree/debian/source/lintian-overrides: Unicode text, UTF-8 text But then faced the following: $ lintian -v cherrytree_0.99.55+dfsg-1.dsc E: cherrytree source: source-is-missing [tests/data_даннÑ?е/test.export.html] W: cherrytree source: mismatched-override source-is-missing tests/data_данные/* [debian/source/lintian-overrides:3] W: cherrytree source: no-nmu-in-changelog [debian/changelog:1] W: cherrytree source: source-nmu-has-incorrect-version-number 0.99.55+dfsg-1 [debian/changelog:1] N: 0 hints overridden; 1 unused override The encoding seems ok regarding the one of the lintian-overrides file. Also with the help of Data::Dumper and adding some print in SourceMissing.pm, I do not see anything strange there. What is astonishing me is that the Perl code of lintian uses calls to encode_utf8/decode_uf8 in many places of different modules instead of fixing utf8 IO once in each. I finally got lost in translation. :-) Best, Patrice
