Package: debhelper
Version: 13.9.1
Severity: important
When the debhelper's testsuite is run in an environment where `LC_ALL`
is not `C.UTF-8`, various warnings are printed and some tests fail (for
example those of dh_installchangelogs).
The solution is probably to set `LC_ALL=C.UTF-8`, but where should it be
set? In debian/rules? In the testsuite? In the single tests?
Log of failures (run with `LC_ALL=de_DE.UTF-8`):
