I've been watching what I was doing before the problem occurs. It was always when displaying that URL in a freshly opened window. I'm not sure about what in the previous environment was the cause. But now I know one way to demonstrate the problem.
1) clear the said URL from history. 2) open a new window or tag 3) set View|Character Encoding to UTF-8 (or anything but ISO889-1) 4) type that URL in the address bar and display page 5) you've got the wrong encoding displayed Obviously, the encoding used must not depend on anything that preexisted. I cannot say if this covers all cases. -- Firefox uses the wrong display encoding https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/206884 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
