Package: util-linux
Version: 2.12p-5
Severity: normal
Hello,
the current version of cfdisk is linked to libslang2 so I assumed it
would support UTF-8 correctly. Unfortunately, it is not the case. Some
strings appear encoded correctly, some do not. Example:
GröÃe: 30005821440 Bytes, 30,0 GB
but:
[ Bootbar] [Löschen] [ Hilfe ] [ Maxim. ] [Ausgabe ]
The ö and ä are encoded correctly, but the ß char is not (seems to be
recoded twice). With de_DE locale it works correctly.
Another thing is missplacement of some entries. It seems that the space
between the partition type (in the table) and the filesystem type has a
variable offset which is calculated wrong if the line has a multibyte
char (Primäre).
Regards,
Eduard.
