No I do not have ready patch; I just asked you to draw attention of gtk maintainer. The problem is following: since the last update of libgtk+ (happened three months ago) Russian characters in most Gtk-based applications are lost. It took me some time to find out the reason. The correct charset for fonts in Russian locale is defined in rc file that was /etc/gtk/gtkrc.ru before; now file was renamed to /etc/gtk/gtkrc-1.2.ru (all rc files became versioned) but as strace confirms libgtk still is looking for old names. > David Odin no longer works for us, that's why he'll not fix it > :-). > That is exact reason why I do not like to send mails to individual person(s).
