Yes, that was it; sorry I didn't mail back to the list about it. I'd been
careless checking for installed packages, thought it was there, and moved
on. Nothing to do with ncmpc! (unless we think configure should give you a
louder warning if it's not going to be able to make umlauts)
Thanks,
Jeffrey

On one of my systems (xubuntu 9.04) ncmpc seems to have trouble with

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.
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.

Did you find a solution for this? I had the same problem and found that
everything looked correct until the string entered ncurses. After some
searching it turned out that ncursesw is required to be able to have
wide character. So after rebuilding with ncursesw, everything looks
good.
