I just tried to dowgrade mule-ucs to the dapper version (0.84.999+0.20030620-9), without changing any other package.
Both tests that I showed above give correct results: - there is a warning for the writing but I can choose "utf-8" in the list. - the same utf-8 file displays without problem -- [edgy] cannot read/write utf-8 files (emacs & xemacs) https://launchpad.net/bugs/70038 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
