Package: xletters
Version: 1.1.1-4.1
Severity: important
Tags: l10n
Dear Maintainer,
I've installed xletters in Spanish, but, due to an incorrect charset probably
on the translation, the characters on the upper half of the ASCII character
table don't display correctly.
For each character on that half, the program displayed two characters, so I
suppose the translation table was encoded in UTF-8 but displayed as it was ANSI
or another similar charset. Changing the font didn't work.
The words come from /usr/share/dict/spanish at the 'wspanish' package. Please
patch the program so it supports UTF-8 encoding.
Thank you for your attention.
