[Musicpd-dev-team] ncmpc locale issue?
On one of my systems (xubuntu 9.04) ncmpc seems to have trouble with unicode characters. It's a plain ol' installation, no language modifications or anything, and I'm not compiling ncmpc in any special way. Without any locale environment variables set, 1/2 (to pick an arbitrary example) displays as M-BM-=. Setting LC_ALL to en_US.UTF-8 doesn't change this. With LC_ALL=C, it displays as \u00bd. ncmpc is the only thing I seem to have a problem with (for example, mpc works fine). I figure this is probably a pretty simple setup problem on my end, not a bug. Unfortunately I don't know a whole lot about this stuff, so I'm hoping someone out there does!

Debug the function utf8_to_locale() in charset.c. Check if the value of charset is correct. The rest is done by GLib. The behaviour for LC_ALL=C is perfectly ok, because the 1/2 character does not exist in plain ASCII. Max -- Come build with us!
