Comment 2 David GEIGER 2018-01-04 18:31:05 CET 
Assigning to QA,


Advisory:
=============================

Some users reported that our current gscan2pdf package does not
displays properly some others accented characters due to an UTF-8 issue
(e.g. for French users), so this update fixes this issue.
