Hello

The following problem only occurs in GNU emacs 24.5 or 25.0.50.

I have two files:

The first is saved in latin-1 but its header state
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

And the other is the other way around
saved in UTF8 header is 

\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}

Both are displayed correctly in Xemacs and but not in GNU emacs.

Regards
