Package: hexedit Version: 1.2.12-3 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch l10n *** Please type your report below this line *** I have my system configured to use a UTF-8 locale, according to the LANG environment variable: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8
I have a filename which consists of valid non-ascii characters encoded in UTF-8. Specifically, the filename consists of the following bytes: E4 B8 89 E5 B9 B4. The filename shows up correctly as two Chinese characters when I type ls. When I open the file in hexedit, the filename in the line at the bottom of the screen is mangled. Specifically, it looks like this : ä¸~I年 (hopefully that shows up properly, if not, it's an a with umlaut, comma, tilde, capital I, then the correct second character). It would be nice to use the wide character version of ncurses in order to correct this problem. The following patch solves the problem for me: diff -r hexedit-1.2.12.orig/debian/control hexedit-1.2.12/debian/control 6c6 < Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 5), libncurses5-dev, quilt --- > Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 5), libncursesw5-dev, quilt diff -r hexedit-1.2.12.orig/hexedit.c hexedit-1.2.12/hexedit.c 16a17 > #include "locale.h" 56a58 > setlocale(LC_ALL, ""); diff -r hexedit-1.2.12.orig/hexedit.h hexedit-1.2.12/hexedit.h 16c16 < #include <curses.h> --- > #include <ncursesw/curses.h> -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages hexedit depends on: ii libc6 2.7-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.6+20080830-1 shared libraries for terminal hand hexedit recommends no packages. hexedit suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
