Hi Benoît,

I want to inform you about Debian BTS report #849679 [1] regarding
dblatex:

quotes and nested quotes get rendered wrong with Greek language, e.g.:
&#201C; instead of "

Shgort test document [2] can be used to demonstrate the problem (best
transformed using the XeTeX backend), and hotfix [3] seems to fix it.
Actually the affected file el.xml contains even more of the problematic
patterns &# - however I haven't found examples exposing the problem
for the other occurrences until now, and thus I have left them alone.

Please let me know if you agree with my hotfix.

BTW, [4] where the Greek problem has been detected is a nice source of
dblatex examples in several languages.
