Bug#341686: xterm cannot be started in utf-8 mode by default

[Jan Willem Stumpel]

Package: xterm
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n


xterm -u8 does not start xterm in UTF-8 mode, nor does specifying 
xterm*VT100*utf8: in ~/.Xresources make xterm start in UTF-8 mode by default. 

Xterm can be switched to UTF-8 manually (control-rightclick) in both cases, but 
I'd like it to be in UTF-8 mode by default. This is possible with xterm
version 200, but not with the current Sid version (202).

Could you please test latest version (204-0pre1) from experimental and 
see if 
it works? It works for me (I use ISO8859-15):

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ xterm -u8
xterm$ cat > /tmp/lala

^D
xterm$ exit

Then I open the file in my usual environment and it is full of UTF-8 
characters:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /tmp/lele
ññññíííí

If it is the same for you, please report us, in order to close the bug 
with 
the next release.

Best regards,


Ender.

Notice that some locales have shifted to UTF-8 by default for etch (like
french, but i think a couple other european languages too, i saw it in
german too i think). Will xterm default to the right thing in this case ?

I do not remember why exactly, but Branden decided to add a new wrapper
called lxterm for this purpose, instead of modifying xterm and/or
uxterm.

No, it does not work. I have to set UTF-8 manually just like with
version 202. Version 200 is OK.

It it true that 204 has the binary in /usr/bin? It has always been 
in /usr/X11/bin.

Yeah, that was basically my thinking. We can just drop in the updated
aliases whenever we want without having to muck around with a patch.
Granted, quilt makes it pretty easy to make a patch, but I don't want to
have to engage the system if I don't have to.

/usr/X11R6/bin is happily going away in the Xorg 7.0 release, which we're
currently working on packaging. X will finally be FHS compliant!

Bug#336997: xlibmesa-dri: having issues with driver not claiming to support visuals

[David Mulcahy]

Just for the record I was having similar problems see
http://lists.debian.org/debian-x/2005/08/msg00235.html
but after upgrading to partially unstable and experimental, the libgl warnings 
have disappeared but I cannot get direct rendering to work.  Is this fixed in 
experimental and if so how does one completely upgrade all X packages using 
aptitude just to make sure.

The reason was that it would have changed uxterm incompatibly,
to solve a problem that could be done outside it.

Bug#341686: xterm cannot be started in utf-8 mode by default

I already responded to this in

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=318923

also see the manpage:

   -u8 This  option  sets  the utf8 resource.  When utf8 is set, xterm
   interprets incoming data as UTF-8.   This  sets  the  wideChars
   resource  as  a  side-effect,  but  the  UTF-8 mode set by this
   option prevents it from being turned off.  If you must turn  it
   on and off, use the wideChars resource.
 
   This option and the utf8 resource are overridden by the -lc and
   -en options and locale resource.  That is, if  xterm  has  been
   compiled  to  support  luit,  and  the  locale  resource is not
   ``false'' this option is ignored.  We recommend using  the  -lc
   option  or  the ``locale: true'' resource in UTF-8 locales when
   your operating system supports locale, or -en UTF-8  option  or
   the  ``locale: UTF-8'' resource when your operating system does
   not support locale.

The default value for the locale resource is ``medium''.  If you set it to
``false'', the -u8 option will work as you want.

OK,
looks like debian is broken. There was no link from libXmu.so to
libXmu.so.6 in /usr/X11R6/lib.
Thanks for the tip.

For you Debian guys:

I can't reproduce the problem.  But I see that I'm running a later libc6.
I set my $PATH and locale to match the report, and uxterm comes up without
any messages.

Here's the relevant version information:

ii  xterm 6.8.2.dfsg.1-7   X terminal emulator
ii  libc6 2.3.5-8  GNU C Library: 
Shared libraries and Timezone

This link is only needed for building software and as such is part of the
-dev package, not the library package.  You want to install libxmu-dev.

you need to install the development packages as well. in this case you
need libxmu-dev but it's probably better to install xlibs-dev which
will pull in all the relevant packages.

You need libxmu-dev installed to compile stuff with it.
