Message:
Cyril,
   Would you have time to try our latest release (2.5.0) and see if it has
fixed this bug?  It should be using a more recent version of GTK which may
have fixed the problem.  None of us developers can reproduce this bug
(maybe it only occurs on French Windows version?).

Thanks,
Julian

Message:
Thanks for the post, Peter.  With this in mind, I guess we also need to
know how this file was opened: was it from the "Open File" dialog inside
gerbv, or was it from the command line?

Cheers--
Julian

Other interesting facts to know...

Linux / *nix / Windows?

If Linux / *nix, what is the encoding your file-system is using? Most
modern systems are UTF-8, but if it is an old file-system, it might be
something else. That can cause issues.

GLib deals in system-encoded names, so if you filesystem is ISO 8859-1, it
can cause problems if gerbv is assuming filenames can be printed as UTF-8.

All GTK things need UTF-8, and you need to use the appropriate filename
conversion routines in GLib. Similarly - althoguh one I'm not so sure how
to fix, is that you should printf translated (or all) strings in the
correct encoding that the terminal is using. Since gerbv is a GUI app, it
will be using UTF-8 internally, but that might not be correct for printf to
a console.

Fortunately though (or is it?), most consoles / filesystems are UTF-8
encoding now-adays, so these bugs are likely to linger without causing any
harm. (Same in geda/gschem, libgeda etc...)

Hello,
   Thanks for the bug report.  Unfortunately, I can't seem to replicate
the crash when I make a test file with "é" in the name.  Could you
possibly attach the particular file to this bug report so I can see what is
causing it?  It may be due to something inside the file.
   If the file contains sensitive material, you can also email it to me
directly at thepurl...@gmail.com, if you don't want to make it public.

Thanks,
Julian
