======================================

Besides, I'm wondering if doc-linux-fr is still relavent for future
Debian releases.
Is it okay that we eventually remove it from Debian archive?

Dear Maintainer,

In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to fix the build failure due to an
invalid UTF-8 byte sequence. Setting the output encoding of the xslt processor
to UTF-8 fixes the issue.


  * Fix FTBFS by using UTF-8 to produce the TeX (Closes: #910813)


Thanks for considering the patch.
