From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.5 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020712 Description of problem: Using locales other then US, messages are truncated whenever an accented character is encountered. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Select a locale that has lots of accented characters (pt_BR in my case) 2.Run redhat-config-nfs (this happen on many other tools also) 3.Use the program and verify that whenever there is a message with accented characters it gets truncated from that point on Actual Results: Messages with accented characters appear truncated beginning at the accented char. Expected Results: Messages should appear correctly with this new UTF-8 font scheme. Additional info: This happen in other programs as well. In some cases, the accented character gets substituted for a "double char" character, usually beginning with the upcase "A-tilde" char: C
I think the translator for pt_BR has converted the po file to UTF-8 a few weeks ago, but after you filed this report. I did a little investigation, and there were still a few po files that were non-UTF-8, which I just converted to UTF-8. Should be fixed with 0.9.9-2. QA, please verify.
Fix confirmed with redhat-config-nfs-0.9.9-5 and LANG=pt_BR
