Description of Problem: graphical install of 'null'. Hit the 'release notes' button. The second line of the release notes box thrown up says copyrightA(c), where the (c) is the © symbol and the A is a capital A with a hat on it. This A-hat symbol recurs further down, seemingly in front of list items in the RAID section of the notes, and in front of list items in the section about Unicode, GNOME, gcc, java compiler... actually as I go down this list it looks like all but that first one are list items within list items.
Yep, I've seen this as well. I'm copying Jeremy and Tammy, maybe they have some clue as to what's happening. Tim
It doesn't look like the A character is in the HTML file. Maybe there is a bug in the way anaconda renders it? I'm changing the component to anaconda.
I think that the problem is that the copyright symbol as included isn't a valid UTF-8 character and it really should be using the © entity instead. Ideas from the docbook gallery on how to actually get this to occur? :) For the weird symbols lower down, it looks like we're getting output with the bullet symbol + paragraphs as opposed to an unordered list.
0x00A9 (which is what it is) displays fine here. I think the problem is the conversion from HTML to text---if you ask for UTF-8, you get UTF-8. Our RELEASE-NOTES.txt displays fine on a UTF-8 terminal here, but looks awful as ASCII. Why aren't we using ASCII, at least for English versions?
Okay, html appears to be viewing properly with current trees. We still need to decide what we want to do about the text versions.
We should probably just do the text as some sort of native encoding.
Fixed in next build
