After latest comments we discussed it again and reached the following conclusion: these files or directories will be ignored.
If a filesystem event with a non-utf8 name is received, the following actions will be taken: - Send a dbus signal to alert that it is being ignored with the following info: - dirpath (unicode): the directory where the file or dir is located - ignored_path (bytes): the ignored file or dir name - Log this ignore in a specific log file. - Stop further event processing for this file/dir. This will allow us to behave better for Lucid, and revisit later this decision when more variables were set. -- We should support utf8-invalid filenames https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368626 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
