(I just noticed that much of the sqlite-users mailing list traffic has been going into my spam folder for the past few days. I am trying to clear the backlog now...)

Is this just an explanation of current behaviour, or is > it an official policy? SQLite APIs expect UTF8 filenames. This is true across all platforms. Conversions to other encodings are made automatically where required. But on posix, filenames are expected to be UTF8, and so on posix, no translation is required. (The situation is very different on Windows.) So the rules: (1) Filenames passed into SQLite should be UTF8 (2) Filenames passed into unix system calls (ex: open()) should be UTF8 What Qt or other libraries expect seems to be irrelevant. Beyond that, I don't really understand what problem you are having??? -- D.
