Ah, aparently I need to learn more about Debian/Ubuntu development process. I found a Debian bug (almost 2 years old) that deals with this issue. The maintainer, though, seems to be reluctant to force the patch into Debian, the issue was forwarded to pilot-link developers. They are, however, reluctant to fix it, too, for no aparent reason. Here are the references.
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=269731 http://bugs.pilot-link.org/1335 The original patch (not the one I referred to above) was submitted to a mailing list 4 (four!) years ago. It's unbelievable such a small issue takes forever to fix. Here is the original posting (in Russian): http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-cyr/2002-August/msg00005.html I see that there's very little chance this ever gets fixed in pilot-link head, but maybe it could be fixed in Debian version of the package? -- Gnome PalmOS limited charset support https://launchpad.net/bugs/24804 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
