This is essentially the same failure mode as gdl, and the solution is
likely to be the same (transcode source code from whatever ISO Latin
encoding it is to UTF-8). Do you happen to have a usertag for similar
bugs?
libgnomecanvas already has a RC bug indicating that we don't want to
release it with buster (it's been dead upstream for several years) so
this particular one might not be worth fixing, unless the maintainer of
one of its rdeps wants to pick it up.
