It's general for all people where ALL of the following conditions are true: * they have a non-latin-1 default coding system (or read files with the coding: spec) which produces/reads 8bit chars (). * they use \usepackage[latinN]{inputenc} where N != 1 * their system does not have the locale command * they don't read the warnings issued by X-Symbol (OK, it's a bit hidden with Emacs < 21.4). * they don't read carefully the installation instruction while using beta software. > This should be remedied as soon as possible, either by you or by the > Debian package maintainer. As I said, probably next week. BTW, you are allowed to send patches. Regards, - Christoph
