Bug ID: 313700
Summary: Okular can't read synctex files from utf8(non-ascii)
directories
Classification: Unclassified
Product: okular
Version: 0.15.5
Platform: Fedora RPMs
URL: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=747976
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
I am trying to use Kile+Okular under Fedora 18 to write using XeLaTeX. I use
SyncTex to synchronize these two applications. It worked fine in Fedora 15, but
since 16 it doesn't work. Investigating a bit, I found that Okular have
problems with reading synctex data from the directory with utf8 characters in
its name. This is the result when I try to open okular manually:
-----------------
[hedayat@hedayat-lap ~]% /usr/bin/okular --unique
"file:/mnt/hedayat/درس<200c>ها/پروژه
پایانی/final_report/thesis.pdf#src:1599/mnt/hedayat/درس<200c>ها/پروژه
پایانی/final_report/thesis.tex"
SyncTeX Warning: No tag for /mnt/hedayat/??????/?????
??????/final_report/thesis.tex
-----------------
As can be seen, it replaces utf8 characters with '?', and then it is unable to
load synctex data.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a tex document using Kile in a directory with non-latin characters.
2. Configure Kile's build options for PDFLatex/XeLaTeX to use "Modern" build
(which generates SyncTeX data)
3. Compile your document using PDFLatex or XeLaTeX
4. Try ForwardPDF
Actual Results:
Document opens in Okular, but it doesn't go the the same line as you are in
Kile.
Expected Results:
It should open the document on the same line as where you are in Kile in the
document.
It seems to be independent of the active locale, and happens in en_US.utf8
locale too.
