Dear Dmitry, Yes, the problem still persists; but, after investigating a little bit more, it seems to me that it could be a console-setup package problem. I have also installed ksh and mksh to make some tests, with the following results: * mksh works partially (e.g.: lower-case vowels and 'ñ' echo as expected, but upper-case don't). * ksh works perfectly well with Spanish special characters (e.g.: 'echo "áéíóú ÁÉÍÓÚ ïü ÏÜ ¡¿"') within the console at least (before entering X). It works bad in terminal emulator within X. * rc(1), which depends on readline library works as bad as before. Please, do have a look at the these posts and let me know if they could give us any clue, or if you think it has nothing to do with this problem. The discussion is too technical for me, I am afraid. Changes mentioned there date from a few weeks before I started to see the problem within login1. https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/console-setup/compare/1.142...1.143 https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/console-setup/commit/ebab2dc218faf708357ffb841d65e476dd5e1462 Kindest regards, Ricardo Peliquero
