Moving to thunderbird to see if it can be handled there. Note that if this is an issue with VLC, there's nothing we can do with it in Fedora, as we don't ship VLC. (In reply to comment #0) > Problem: When a thunderbird attachment has national characters or other "odd" > characters, and these are double-clicked, the opening program cannot find the > file. For example, an example-şöçfaıl.wmv cannot be opened by VLC. Could you tell us what exactly thunderbird sends to vlc? ps -e -o pid,args|grep -i vlc Thank you After a double click an attachment, I see something like: 2600 /bin/bash /usr/bin/vlc /tmp/S?FEK OMYA.wmv The "?" character was the dotted U.. Sorry for very late reply. Could you please attach such message? To save message use right mouse button on message body and choose Save as... Since thunderbird is using GIO to work with files this could be already fixed so please retest if possible. That is not even necessary -- thunderbird, when it saves an attachment to its temp folder (that has national or otherwise "weird" characters in it), it should replace it with something innocous, such as an underscore. That way, any viewer program will not choke on such filenames.. This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
