Description Franz Brauße 2009-01-14 03:29:12 UTC

html2text initially has no support for UTF-8, but there is a patch for html2text-1.3.2a which enables support for UTF-8 input and output at
> http://www.mbayer.de/html2text/downloads/patch-utf8-html2text-1.3.2a.diff
Though I haven't looked into the code, it appears to be working nicely.

It would be nice if it were included in the portage database.

Reproducible: Always
