Bug ID: 465641
Summary: Wrong text encoding for file names in X11
Classification: I don't know
Product: kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org
Reporter: tianer2...@outlook.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Chinese file names become random strings when using the "ls" command and in
many other applications.
Looks like the encoding is wrong.
This only happens in X11, in Wayland, everything worked fine.
Many other applications are affected, such as LibreOffice and Python3.
LibreOffice displays the file name on its title bar and it becomes a random
string. The os.listdir() in Python3 also produce random strings.
I guess the system is making wrong assumptions about what encoding those
applications use.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. create a new folder, cd into it, create a new file named "测试.txt"
2. run ls ./
OBSERVED RESULT
the file name becomes "'��'$'\213''��'$'\225''.txt'"
EXPECTED RESULT
It should not become a random string
