Description Xu Hao Qing 2002-09-19 13:46:04 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020809

Description of problem:
Defult name for new folder can not be read in gnome-terminal, under zh_CN locale

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


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Choose Simplified Chinese locale, login.
2.Open a nautilus window
3.Right click on the window, select "Create new folder"(translated from Chinese
string), accept the default name, which is "unamed folder"(translated from Chinese)
4.Open a terminal window, cd to the directory where that new folder sits and do
an "ls"
	

Actual Results:  You'll see the new foler's name is unreadable-- it's some
question marks plus some wrong chinese characters.

Expected Results:  The folder's name should be identical in nautilus and in
gnome-terminal.

Additional info:

Don't know whether it's a nautilus bug or a gnome-terminal bug

Basically the problem is UTF-8 vs. locale encoding confusion. I'm not sure 
how to fix this really...

In 8.0 final, things go even worse -- the default new folder's name is not
readable in both nautilus and gnome-terminal -- but they are identical this time

Comment 3 Alexander Larsson 2003-01-16 16:52:06 UTC
Was G_BROKEN_FILENAME set in the environment? If so this is a bug that's fixed
in cvs. (And in fact a dup of bug 70688)

Works okay in rawhide
