Package: xterm Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 Severity: normal When using the command xterm -n Dépot -T Dépot (in UTF-8 locale) the window name and icon name are shown as D?pot.
If I use xtermset to set the names, everything works fine. Thus it seems that the -n and -T options reencode their argument to an iso charset. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-k7 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages xterm depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libexpat1 1.95.8-3 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libfontconfig1 2.3.2-1.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.1.7-2.4 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libice6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libncurses5 5.5-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsm6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Window System Session Management ii libxaw8 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Athena widget set library ii libxext6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxft2 2.1.7-1 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxmu6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Window System miscellaneous util ii libxp6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Window System printing extension ii libxpm4 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X pixmap library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.0.2-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxt6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii xlibs-data 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Window System client data Versions of packages xterm recommends: ii xutils 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Window System utility programs -- no debconf information
