Package: gimp Version: 2.2.10-1 Severity: normal
I start gimp from the command line. Therefore I noticed that selecting the file->print menu gave me a lot of error messages on the console. They were all like this: Gtk-Message: The filename "str\370m" couldn't be converted to UTF-8. (try setting the environment variable G_FILENAME_ENCODING): Invalid byte sequence in conversion input It is true that I have quite a few files whose names does not conform to UTF-8. Many of them aren't even pictures. So gimp has no business whatsoever trying to create UTF-8 strings for these filenames! Gimp is clearly wasting its (an my) time as well as memory, for there were no need to look up even a single filename. I was bringing up the print dialog for an existing open picture, I was *not* using the "open file" dialog or some such. Removing this nonsense should give a faster gimp, fewer error messages, and possibly a somewhat smaller codebase. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15 Locale: LANG=nb_NO.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=nb_NO.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages gimp depends on: ii gimp-data 2.2.10-1 Data files for The GIMP ii libaa1 1.4p5-30 ascii art library ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.10.3-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.3.5-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcairo2 1.0.2-3 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libexif12 0.6.12-2 library to parse EXIF files ii libexpat1 1.95.8-3 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libfontconfig1 2.3.2-1.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.1.10-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgimp2.0 2.2.10-1 Libraries necessary to Run the GIM ii libglib2.0-0 2.8.5-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.9-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-11 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii liblcms1 1.13-1 Color management library ii libmng1 1.0.8-1 Multiple-image Network Graphics li ii libpango1.0-0 1.10.2-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-5 PNG library - runtime ii libsm6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11 X Window System Session Management ii libtiff4 3.7.4-1 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libwmf0.2-7 0.2.8.3-3.1 Windows metafile conversion librar ii libx11-6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System protocol client li ii libxcursor1 1.1.3-1 X cursor management library ii libxext6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxi6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System Input extension li ii libxinerama1 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System multi-head display ii libxmu6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System miscellaneous util ii libxpm4 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X pixmap library ii libxrandr2 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System Resize, Rotate and ii libxrender1 1:0.9.0.2-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxt6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii wget 1.10.2-1 retrieves files from the web ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-9 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gimp recommends: ii gimp-print 4.3.99+cvs20051122.dfsg.1-2 print plugin for the GIMP pn gimp-svg <none> (no description available) -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
