Package: cowsay
Version: 3.03-9
Followup-For: Bug #254557
I noticed, that the lenght of the message is calculated erroneously
if the message contains two-byte symbols from UTF-8 encoding.
This leads, in particular, to broken balloons for such strings.
For example:
$ cowsay Hello, world
______________
< Hello, world >
--------------
\ ^__^
\ (oo)\_______
(__)\ )\/\
||----w |
|| ||
$ cowsay 'Привет, мир!'
_______________________
< Привет, мир! >
-----------------------
\ ^__^
\ (oo)\_______
(__)\ )\/\
||----w |
|| ||
