Package: docbook-utils
Version: 0.6.14-1
Severity: normal

I attached two files, an ASCII one, that compiles nicely, an
UTF-8 one, that does not. Both are in XML format, not SGML, but
I don't think that this fact triggers the problem. Btw. other
UTF-8 characters e.g. German umlauts make the same trouble.

openjade:/tmp/utf8.dbk:6:21:E: non SGML character number 128
openjade:/tmp/utf8.dbk:6:22:E: non SGML character number 148
