ah. now it makes sense :)

so evolution2 gets a vcard that is iso-8859-1 encoded. from the manpage:

E9           LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH ACUTE

so i think the correct approach to this would be to fix in the other plugin since all vcards passing through multisync should be encoded in utf8.

Another possibility would be to use g_utf8_validate in the evo2 plugin and if it returns false use g_convert from iso-8859-1 to utf8. But this would just be a ugly hack.



Ok, I think I got you. One other question: I tried fiddling around with the value for "Translate from character set" in "Bug Workarounds" in the IrMC plugin (the "other" plugin); I did this:

1. Set it to a given value (tried with UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1).
2. Erased the calendar.ics-msyncid2.db and all appointments in the
phone's calendar.
3. Synchronized once; it worked.
4. Synchronized again; it didn't work.

Do you think this setting could have any impact in my problem? If yes,
is there any other value, other than UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1, that I should
try here?


no. if both of these do not work, none will work.

Regards.
