Package: iceape-browser
Version: 2.0-1
Severity: normal
In html page, there is a link featuring iso-8859-1 characters in url,
e.g. href="pää.gif". Iceape browser converts these charaters to utf-8
when following the link. Link following fails due to conversion.
>From apache's access log:

Older Iceape doesn't try convert characters and link following works as
expected.

Apache provided "test.html" with correct character encoding.
