Package: sylpheed Version: 2.0.0-1 Severity: grave Tags: l10n Justification: causes non-serious data loss
When "edit with external editor" is choosen after a part of the message has already been composed in sylpheed's own editor, non-ASCII characters (japanese, for instance) are automatically replaced by the '_' character, which can cause a loss of the current message. When the message is saved to the draft folder afterwards, the header contains: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit When it is saved to the draft folder before using "edit with external editor", the header is Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit as expected (outgoing encoding is set to UTF-8, the content Transfer encoding to automatic). It does not seem to matter, which editor is given in the options. I have tried the following: "kwrite %s" "konsole -e vi %s" "konsole -e ispell %s" "" (blank - emacs is called) The programmes called show the already altered message. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'oldstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12.5 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages sylpheed depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.10.1-2 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcompfaceg1 1989.11.11-24 Compress/decompress images for mai ii libglib2.0-0 2.6.5-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgpg-error0 1.1-4 library for common error values an ii libgpgme11 1.0.2-1 GPGME - GnuPG Made Easy ii libgtk2.0-0 2.6.8-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libldap2 2.1.30-11 OpenLDAP libraries ii libpango1.0-0 1.8.2-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpisock8 0.11.8-10 Library for communicating with a P ii libssl0.9.7 0.9.7e-3 SSL shared libraries ii sylpheed-i18n 2.0.0-1 Locale data for Sylpheed (i18n sup Versions of packages sylpheed recommends: ii aspell-en 6.0-0-3 English dictionary for GNU Aspell pn metamail <none> (no description available) ii sylpheed-claws-scripts 1.0.4-1 Helper scripts for Sylpheed and Sy ii xfonts-100dpi 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 100 dpi fonts for X ii xfonts-75dpi 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14 75 dpi fonts for X -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
