Package: copyright-update
Version: 2013.0602-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
The copyright sign should be encoded according to the file's encoding to
make the regexp match.
Enclosed I send you a dirty hack which fixed the error for me; a proper
fix should try to guess the file's encoding.
Kind regards,
Philipp
