Package: xterm
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11
Severity: normal
When using the command xterm -n Dépot -T Dépot (in UTF-8 locale) the
window name and icon name are shown as D?pot.
If I use xtermset to set the names, everything works fine. Thus it
seems that the -n and -T options reencode their argument to an iso
charset.
