Package: hurd Version: 20050513-5 Severity: wishlist I think we should use UTF-8 by default for the Hurd console, any objections?
Here is an excerpt of an related IRC conversation: 00:03 < azeem> why is UTF8 not the default? 00:05 < marco_g> azeem: I often wondered the same. :-) 00:05 < marco_g> azeem: Can you change that for Debian? 00:06 < azeem> marco_g: what needs changing? 00:06 < azeem> marco_g: does it needs some patching, or just set the local? 00:06 < azeem> eh, locale 00:07 < azeem> or some options to the Hurd console command-line? 00:07 < zedek> azeem: console server option 00:08 < zedek> azeem: AFAIK (-enc) 00:09 < azeem> ah, so change MAKEDEV? 00:16 < marco_g> azeem: The default in the console server has to be changed. 00:17 < marco_g> azeem: Or better: how Debian sets it. 00:17 < marco_g> azeem: Yes, changing makedev.
