Package: sylpheed Version: 2.4.5-1 Severity: normal Hi!
After composing a message with some UTF-8 (non-latin1) characters in it (e.g.: cyrillic letters), and clicking the Send later button, I get the following error message: | Code conversion error | Can't convert the character encoding of the message body | from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1. | | Send it as UTF-8 anyway? | | [ No ] [ Yes ] If I answer Yes, the message seems to be correctly queued for sending (and sent, when I click on the Send button in the general tool bar). The problem is: why does Sylpheed complain in the first place? Who did ask it to perform a UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1 code conversion? I configured Sylpheed without ever choosing ISO-8859-1 in any setting whatsoever. I set Automatic "Transfer encoding" (but I also tried quoted-printable, with no useful effect in making the error message disappear...). Hence no code conversion to ISO-8859-1 was requested by me, and this error message should not appear! I even recursively grep'ed my ~/.sylpheed-2.0/ directory in order to check whether there was some ISO-8859-1 setting buried somewhere for some reason, but there's no such thing, it seems: $ grep -R latin /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/ $ grep -R 8859 /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/ /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Compose>/View/Character encoding/Greek (ISO-8859-7)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Compose>/View/Character encoding/Western European (ISO-8859-1)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Main>/View/Character encoding/Arabic (ISO-8859-6)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Compose>/View/Character encoding/Arabic (ISO-8859-6)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Main>/View/Character encoding/Greek (ISO-8859-7)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Compose>/View/Character encoding/Western European (ISO-8859-15)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Compose>/View/Character encoding/Turkish (ISO-8859-9)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Main>/View/Character encoding/Baltic (ISO-8859-4)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Compose>/View/Character encoding/Baltic (ISO-8859-13)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Compose>/View/Character encoding/Cyrillic (ISO-8859-5)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Compose>/View/Character encoding/Baltic (ISO-8859-4)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Main>/View/Character encoding/Cyrillic (ISO-8859-5)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Main>/View/Character encoding/Turkish (ISO-8859-9)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Main>/View/Character encoding/Central European (ISO-8859-2)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Main>/View/Character encoding/Baltic (ISO-8859-13)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Main>/View/Character encoding/Hebrew (ISO-8859-8)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Compose>/View/Character encoding/Hebrew (ISO-8859-8)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Main>/View/Character encoding/Western European (ISO-8859-15)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Compose>/View/Character encoding/Central European (ISO-8859-2)" "") /home/frx/.sylpheed-2.0/menurc:; (gtk_accel_path "<Main>/View/Character encoding/Western European (ISO-8859-1)" "") What's wrong?
