This is because HTML reports are output in a tar file. The garbage you
are seeing is part of the tar format. When using HTML output, you should
use lr_log2report -o html combined < log_file > report.tar and use tar
to unpack the report.

This used to happen with some version of xsltproc and recent version
of the DocBook XSL stylesheets. Upgrading to a recent version of 
xsltproc would solve that problem. You might also want to run
the command with more log messages by setting LR_DEBUG in your
$HOME/.lire/etc/defaults file:

echo LR_DEBUG=1 >> $HOME/.lire/etc/defaults
