Description Tim Waugh 2002-09-02 11:40:32 EDT

Description of Problem: 
When in en_GB.UTF-8 locale, and using GBP, the net totals tear-off shows 
amounts with 'AB#' (where 'A' has a circumflex above it).  Elsewhere the 
currency symbol is correct. 
 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 
gnucash-1.6.6-7 
 
How Reproducible: 
100%

Comment 1 Tim Waugh 2002-09-03 13:58:34 EDT

Also the totals when reconciling.

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2005-01-28 17:18:23 EST

This is almost certianly due to the use of GTK+1, which isn't really
utf-8 safe.

Hopefully it will be fixed in the upcoming GNOME 2 port.
