Package: azureus
Version: 3.1.1.0-3.1
Severity: important

Hello,

Azureus has problems correctly decoding the file names in some torrents. There
are two problems I noted:

1. Sometimes special characters (spaces, parentheses etc.) are shown as their
Ascii codes (similar to URLs), e.g. space is shown as "_20". The original name
can still be reconstucted.

2. Some Japanese characters (seems to concern katakana especially) are shown as
question marks. The original name is lost.

Both make using Azureus with those files a pain, since the filenames have to be
changed manually, and in the second case they have to be retreived from the
original torrent, presumably by another torrent client which could have
downloaded them correctly in the first place.

I have example torrents for both cases, both non-working and working ones for
reference, all of which work in e.g. qbittorrent. Since I am not sure about
their legality I'll send them via private mail, feel free to add them to the
bugreport if you don't think it's a problem.

Best regards,
Christian Ohm
