Description Nikolay 2004-08-13 19:21:10 UTC

Description of problem:
If you just type a 'man' in console (KDE I do not test that in GNOME)
you see the string in  incorrect character coding. 

<may not be the correct one the browser seems to have problems with
encoding to>

'ЪÑÑ ÑÑâÑÑÑÑÑ ÑÑ âÑÑÑÑÑÑÑÑÑÑÑÑ ÑÑÑÑÑÑÑ?'



I believe the character set is not correct. 

My locale command output is
LANG=bg_BG.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open konsole (KDE) 
2.type man
3.observe the output
    

Actual Results:  ЪÑÑ ÑÑâÑÑÑÑÑ ÑÑ âÑÑÑÑÑÑÑÑÑÑÑÑ ÑÑÑÑÑÑÑ?


Expected Results:  Should be in Bulgarian language.
look like:

'Ðаква ÑÑÑаниÑа желаеÑе да видиÑе?'

- translation is mine not the actual one.

    With KDE's konsole and the normal text console (/dev/ttyX) man,
info show strange characters; mutt displays nothing instead of cyrilic
letters, ls and mc work in all the cases - this is not konsole/console
problem. I tryed LC_ALL=bg_BG.{CP1251,UTF-8} luit <whatever>. Info
works fine with 'ru_RU.{CP1251,UTF-8}. wget works fine with
bg_BG.UTF-8, but fails with bg_BG.CP1251 (with ru_RU.CP1251 shows in
English).
    When you press <F10> in mc the dialog is a 2-3 characters outside
the left corner of the screen and has a large blank area at the right,
but I guess this is another story.

Comment 2 Eido Inoue 2004-11-09 23:48:14 UTC
man-1.5o1 should have the bg encoding correctly specified; it should
also work with legacy non-UTF-8 encodings.
