Package: xterm
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge1
Severity: normal
When xterm is running in ru_RU locale (which uses ISO-8859-5), it shows
characters as if they were KOI8-R encoded, giving garbage:
$ locale;locale charmap;date
LANG=ru_RU
LC_CTYPE=ru_RU
LC_NUMERIC=ru_RU
LC_TIME=ru_RU
LC_COLLATE=ru_RU
reassign 341808 xlibs-data
thanks

Yes.. but I did not understand it and I also had the impression
that in that thread, two different bugs were being discussed.
also see the manpage:

[..] So the next question is how to use this information. From
the commandline, I could type
xterm -xrm '*locale:false' -u8
but of course that gets tedious. I generally have my $HOME/bin
before other directories in $PATH, so it would be simple to
write a shell script

UTF-8 encoding. So I don't think that's what you want (though
it was what Thomas Wolff requested).
Do you mean the author of the mined editor?
yes.
Supposing that your locale is set to a UTF-8 one such as
de_DE.UTF-8,
give me (on my system) an xterm which understands UTF-8 by default
(without setting it manually). So I am still baffled. E.g., both
display UTF-8 e with sharp accent as A with tilde followed by an
'at' sign. My locale is en_GB.UTF-8. So far my only solution is to
downgrade to version 200.
