Hi, after installing a few new packages (sorry, cannot exactly figure out, which dependencies where resolved and installed by apt) on my sarge system, I encountered problems with utf-8 encoding and perl/xml. It seems like a bug to me, but since I'm rather new to perl/xml programming I won't send a report to the BTS.
The problem can be cooked down to the following simple script: #!/usr/bin/perl use XML::SAX::Writer; use XML::LibXML::SAX::Parser; my $writer = XML::SAX::Writer->new(Output => "test_out.xml"); my $parser = XML::LibXML::SAX::Parser->new(); my %parser_args = (Source => {SystemId => "test_in.xml"}, Handler => $writer); $parser->parse(%parser_args); where test_in.xml is something like ?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Only_A_Test> utf-8 encoded non ascii chars like: UniversitÃ?t </Only_A_Test> In test_out.xml the non-ascii chars are iso-latin1 encoded. Can anyone reproduce this? Any hint? Thanks, Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
