  Description     : C library for processing UTF-8 Unicode data

utf8proc is a small, clean C library that provides Unicode normalization,
case-folding, and other operations for data in the UTF-8 encoding, supporting
Unicode version 8.0.

This package replaces the embedded copy of utf8proc in the julia package,
and is suited to substitute embedded copies in the following packages:

  liblucy-perl
  mriconvert
  netcdf
  netsurf
  paraview
  subversion
  swi-prolog
  utopia-documents
  vtk
  xqilla
  zephyr

The package will be maintained by the Debian Julia Team (Cc'ed).
