Package: libxft-dev Version: 2.1.12-2 Severity: minor The following manpages in your package appear to be UTF-8 encoded:
/usr/share/man/man3/Xft.3.gz According to Colin Watson, "With some exceptions for Far Eastern languages, manual pages should not at present be encoded using UTF-8. As such, it's reasonable to file bugs against packages attempting to use UTF-8 where it is not yet supported." Hence I'm filing this bug. The solution for now seems to be to encode the pages as 7-bit ASCII, using the appropriate *roff sequences to produce accented characters. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (700, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libxft-dev depends on: ii libc6-dev [libc-dev] 2.6.1-1+b1 GNU C Library: Development Librari ii libfontconfig1-dev 2.4.2-1.2 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6-dev 2.3.5-1+b1 FreeType 2 font engine, developmen ii libx11-dev 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library (developme ii libxft2 2.1.12-2 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxrender-dev 1:0.9.2-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii x11-common 1:7.2-5 X Window System (X.Org) infrastruc ii zlib1g-dev [libz-dev] 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-5 compression library - development libxft-dev recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
