Package: gpe-contacts Version: 0.49-1 Severity: normal Contact data exported to vCards are not encoded properly. Instead, UTF-8 is written to the file directly, but nowhere is the charset declared:
BEGIN:VCARD PROFILE:VCARD FN:Martin F. Krafft N:Krafft;Martin;;; LABEL;TYPE=work:ascasc\nascasc\nasc\nascää²³éÿä² PRODID:-//GNOME//NONSGML MIME Directory Library 0.4.2//EN REV:20090707T152527Z VERSION:3.0 END:VCARD Arguably, RFC 2426 states that over version 2.1, VCARD 3.0 means that The [VCARD] CHARSET type parameter has been eliminated. Character set can only be specified on the CHARSET parameter on the Content-Type MIME header field. However, this makes most existing software unable to handle the exported vCards, since files don't get a Content-Type MIME header. I don't know what the proper fix is. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-rc5-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gpe-contacts depends on: ii gpe-icons 0.25-1 Common icons used by GPE programs ii libatk1.0-0 1.26.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.9-19 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.8.8-2 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libcontactsdb0 0.5-4 shared library for accessing gpe-c ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.14-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.80-4 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libeventdb2 0.90-4 library that provides access to gp ii libglib2.0-0 2.20.4-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgpepimc0 0.9-2 category management for GPE applic ii libgpevtype1 0.50-4 data interchange library for GPE a ii libgpewidget1 0.117-1 GPE Palmtop Environment widget lib ii libgtk2.0-0 2.16.4-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libmimedir-gnome0.4 0.4.2-1 MIME Directory Profile implementat ii libpango1.0-0 1.24.3-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libsqlite0 2.8.17-4 SQLite shared library gpe-contacts recommends no packages. gpe-contacts suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madd...@d.o> Related projects: : :' : proud Debian developer http://debiansystem.info `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://vcs-pkg.org `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
