Public bug reported: Affects: kdepim kpilot (Ubuntu) Severity: Normal Priority: (none set) Status: Unconfirmed
Description: Problem: The first sync of with KPilot resulted in broken umlauts and accents in the KPilot databases. Workaround: Had to delete all databases, set the encoding in KPilot to "iso 8850-1" (which is not even a selectable option), and then sync again. That fixed it. Proposed Solution: KPilot should either have a default setting that works (in most cases) or ask during installation. This is Kubuntu Dapper Flight 5, KDE 3.5.1, KPilot 4.6.0, pilot-link 0.11.8; Palm Tungsten E, Palm OS 5.2.1 -- Wrong default character encoding breaks umlauts / accents https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/37413 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
