Public bug reported:
My system is using the fr_CA locale with the ISO-8859-1 character set.
In gnumeric, when I try to save a file in a directory that contains non-
ASCII characters, I get an 'Error' dialog with the following message:
"Not a valid UTF-8 filename."
It still creates a file in the directory but it is empty.
If I use the 'Create directory' function in the file browser dialog, the
directory is created with UTF-8 encoding (it should be created in the
same charset than my locale.)
Example directory:
$ export LC_CTYPE="fr_CA.iso-8859-1"
$ mkdir ~/Répertoire
** Affects: gnumeric (Ubuntu)
Importance: Untriaged
Status: Unconfirmed
