Hallo,
I just installed licq 1.3.2/SSL on my Kubuntu Edgy for some testing.
The system runs completely with UTF-8 and german localisation. I
logged in with my ICQ-testaccount and wrote a message to my main ICQ
account running on a ISO-8859-15 system with micq 0.5.2 (
http://www.pack-eis.de/index.php?p=micq ). Without any modifications
licq sends in UTF-8 and micq doesn't recognize it although it's
capable of UTF-8. I can micq let me show some infos about the 'other'
client and for this licq version it shows:
mICQ> s dampy
* 8S& ######### RealDampy (verbunden) [ICQ 2001 (?)] 2007-03-17
10:31:45
+ ######### dampy (verbunden) [ICQ 2001 (?)] 2007-03-17

Since I know, that licq is sending in UTF-8, I can tell micq and from
then everything works fine, but that is not the problem. I think it's
a problem of licq, which doesn't send CAP_UTF8. Other clients do and I
don't have to tell micq or licq, who uses which encoding, they simply
understand each other. For example recent Miranda:
mICQ> s *****
8S^ ######### ***** (nicht stören) [Miranda 0.3.7.6] 2007-03-17
08:59:51
+ ######### ***** (nicht stören) [Miranda 0.3.7.6]

Am I right and this is a problem of licq which doesn't send CAP_UTF8
or should I ask on micq mailing list?
