Explanation: A file is not valid UTF-8.
 .
 Debian has used UTF-8 for many years. Support for national encodings
 is being phased out. This file probably appears to users in mangled
 characters (also called mojibake).
 .
 Packaging control files must be encoded in valid UTF-8.
 .
 Please convert the file to UTF-8 using <code>iconv</code> or a similar
 tool.
