Hello,
I've found the reason for the missing UTF-8 filename support:
The filenames are converted in the C++-Code from Latin1 (to java-intern
encoding). The right way is converting from UTF-8.
Because the standard filename encoding is UTF-8 since Debian Etch, the
appended patch should solve the filename problem on almost all current
systems.
Bye,
Johann Felix
