Package: debhelper
Version: 5.0.41
Severity: normal
Tags: patch l10n

The french manpages of debhelper are encoded in UTF-8, they should be in
ISO-8859-15.

This is due to the recent migration of fr.po to UTF-8.

Since '=encoding utf8' of perldoc doesn't seem to work, we can
workaround it with the relevant po4a options, so po4a generates .pod
files in ISO-8859-15. 

A patch for man/po4a/po4a.cfg is attached.
