That /usr/local/bin/clawsker in the error message indicates that you are running a clawsker that is compiled from source and not the one packaged in Debian. (A packaged version would run from /usr/bin/clawsker). Also, you are talking about a use-line on line 7 - later versions of clawsker (including 1.1.1) has a shebang and the GPL license from line 1 to line 13. See https://git.claws-mail.org/?p=clawsker.git;a=blob;f=clawsker;h=15346bb8da09a1a11c16a2c4be9464a19ad83c2d;hb=812fb9e5c7e590e0e08b246cf2ff25d9de1d34d7 There you can also see that version 1.1.1 already has a "use utf8;" entry on line 19. /Andreas Rönnquist [email protected]
