I apologize for that. Yes, I see that the tone of that comment can be considered rude. That was really not the intention. > The tests where run and > don't fail on my system(s).

This may be just me misunderstanding something, but the "test_mail.py" script seems to redirect the mail to a file by replacing the mailx binary with "mock-mail", which just redirects it's input to a file. And I failed to see how it could succeed as long as "utf-8" != "utf8" bjorn@canardo:/usr/local/mydebs/tmp/unattended-upgrades-0.79.1$ egrep 'utf-?8' unattended-upgrade test/test_mail.py unattended-upgrade: # ensure that the message a utf8 encoded string unattended-upgrade: s = s.encode("utf-8", "replace") unattended-upgrade: msg.set_charset("utf8") test/test_mail.py:# -*- coding: utf-8 -*- test/test_mail.py: self.assertTrue('Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"' in mail_txt) unless of course, your Message.set_charset does some magic processing of the input. Which it indeed does in wheezy. That explains it. I did a (too) quick test on a system running squeeze. My fault. Sorry about that. And once again my apoligies for the tone. It was completely unwarranted, and not appropriate at all in any case. Bjørn -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
