Package: gnome-terminal Version: 2.24.1.1-1 Severity: normal Hi,
It seems that gnome terminal does not comply with locale's character encoding. My locale is: % locale LANG=en_US LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 However, when I do ls on a dir containing utf-8 files I get: % ls éà ù (obviously this is some 8859-1 or alike encoding). In the menu Terminal > Set Character Encoding, Unicode (UTF-8) is selected, but it's not really active as you can see. If I click on this menu, then I really get an utf-8 terminal: % ls éàù It would be nice if I could avoid clicking to set manually the encoding each time I spawn a new terminal... I'd be happy to provide any further information. I think that the issue is quite new (a few weeks at most).
