2009-03-31 Thread Micah Cowan
Still experiencing this on Intrepid. I hadn't been worrying about it because I wasn't using SCIM often enough to make it worth having enabled; however, I've been needing it again lately, and the symptoms are severe and annoying, to the point that the desktop is on the border- line of usable.

I'm fairly confident it isn't; in some locales, the @ will definitely be ignored (relative to surrounding alphabetic chars?). The output of "locale" will hopefully clarify what is being used (the LC_COLLATE value should be the important one). -- 'sort' does not correctly sort non-latin utf-8 enco

Hi Julián, If the problem is that synaptic needs to set the proxy environment variables for wget, then I'm not sure why you've reassigned the bug to wget, as there's nothing to do in the wget package. If, instead, you're recommending that wget respect Gnomish proxy settings, then that would be a l

I'm only using Jaunty, and can't seem to find a install-info package there; but given that the core issue (documentation not matching reality) is resolved already, and based on this new statement, I'd consider it closed. (Also, the coreutils bit should probably already have been closed, right?) --

Hi foolishchild, Yeah, I understand you're point. And you're probably right (though, IIRC, Fedora Core uses the "info coreutils ls" version, which is why I did it that way: also, I thought it was closer to the upstream's intentions, but on closer investigation I don't believe that any longer). Ho
