mu0 - issue #11

seems to ignore LC_CTYPE and uses utf8 for everything

Posted on Oct 29, 2009 by Swift Monkey

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. index an email with umlauts or some other non ascii in the subject 2. search for the subject in a locale that does not use UTF8 3. the output is in utf8

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? recoded back into the current locale's encoding

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? 0.4, Debian

Please provide any additional information below. Debian bug report 534209, http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=534209

The current master changes the behavior to output following the current locale. There are a few exceptions (when output is meant for files); all is documented in the man pages.

This is not in the released 0.9.6, but will make it into 0.9.7.
