[Python-modules-team] Bug#718699: Changelog is not in UTF8

[Enrico Zini]

Package: python-mysqldb
Version: 1.2.3-2
Severity: serious

Hello,

the package declares Standards-Version: 3.9.2 but the changelog is
encoded in latin1.

Since policy version 3.8.1.0, debian/changelog files must be encoded in
UTF-8.

This is currently breaking nm.debian.org in a way which cannot be worked
around by me. See bug #717851.

Ciao,

Enrico
