Public bug reported: When installing kubuntu using the Greek language, in the Timezone selection screen, there is a tooltip that shows the time and then supposedly "am" or "pm" but in Greek case it shows gibberish instead of "πμ" or "μμ".
The reason is a hidden python str -> QString conversion since QString is latin-1 by default. One way to solve this problem is to add: QtCore.QTextCodec.setCodecForCStrings(QtCore.QText.CodecForName("utf8")) after class TimezoneMap(QtGui.QWidget): at ubiquity/frontend/kde_components/Timezone.py I would guess that this also affects other languages with non-latin alphabets (e.g., Russian). Please fix. ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1057485 Title: ubiquity-kde codepage problem in Timezone map (Timezone.py) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1057485/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
