Hi! This is an issue for talking about i18n, I think that in general it's not well-built in Linux in general. These are main reasons:
* I do use [EMAIL PROTECTED] and ISO-8859-15 encoding. I'm forced to use this, because if I used UTF-8, some special characters make us mad, and they don't work as they should. Another main reason, is that if I've everything compiled for ISO-8859-15 in locales.build, I'm NOT GOING to recompile all my system for making it UTF-8. * UTF-8 is an effort for making an universal encoding, but as I said before, It doesn't work perfectly for spanish users (I talk from my point of view, because is the thing that I know). * Without UTF-8, some apps like Totem creates problems in my system, this is a bug that I posted in gentoo and it's unconfirmed yet, but I would like you to think about it: http://bugs.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=307617 Thanks. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
