[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#407751: kipi-plugins: HTML Gallery export fails parsing xml on non-UTF8 meta-info in jpeg

[Nieko Woets]

Package: kipi-plugins
Version: 0.1.2-3
Severity: normal

When using the kipi-plugin HTML Gallery it fails when one or more jpeg images contain non-UTF8 meta-info. The 
meta-info is used in the gallery.xml file in the <description> tags. Xsltproc cannot parse this if this is 
non-UTF8. The plugin aborts with the message "Could not load XML file /path/gallery.xml".

Command to generate error messages in a terminal:
xsltproc --param i18nNext next --param i18nPrevious previous --param i18nCollectionList collection 
simple/template.xsl gallery.xml

Sample error:
gallery.xml:153: parser error : Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding !
Bytes: 0xA8 0x20 0x34 0x2E
   <description>File written by Adobe Photoshop¨ 4.0</description>

This is something for upstream. Either parse the meta-info or perhaps an option to ignore the meta-info 
entirely.
