Package: netrik
Version: 1.15.7-2
Severity: important

        Hi!

 Please take a look at these two outputs:

$> export LANG=C
$> echo 'here is a german umlaut o: ö' | netrik -
here is a german umlaut o: รถ

versus

$> export LANG=de_AT.UTF-8
$> echo 'here is a german umlaut o: ö' | netrik -
here is a german umlaut o: M-v

 Please notice that you can use any utf8 locale, it's just that I have
de_AT.UTF-8 locally enabled.

 I did build me a local test build with the attached straight-forward
patch and it worked for me. Please notice that the very same problem has
affected pal already, see #499403 for a reference of the issue. After
patching it with the attached diff and recompiling I was able to saw the
ö correctly with both locales.

 If you are too busy I can jump in to fix this issue for lenny and
request freeze exception approval, if that's fine with you.

 Thanks in advance,
Rhonda
