Package: iso-codes
Version: 1.7-1ubuntu1
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-serious data loss

iso_639_3.xml reports an encoding of UTF-8 in its initial <?xml> line,
but in fact uses ISO-8859-1 throughout the data. Any parser will choke
on the encoding incompatability. Fixing in either direction is
acceptable.
