Hi Oliver, Hi all

I'm working quite a lot with different OSM maps on Qlandkarte GT, most of them built by the development environment for the Freizeitkarte Project ( http://freizeitkarte-osm.de/en/index.html ).

Actually I'm trying to convince Basecamp, Qlandkarte GT and the GPS to 'speak' cyrillic.

When building maps for the codepage 1251 (via mkgmap tool, amongst others) everything works fine on Qlandkarte GT, I even get proper cyrillic when building maps for areas containing cyrillic names. But when I change the buildprocess to use codepage 65001 (utf8) then Qlandkarte crashes immediately.... the codepage change is the only change, nothing else changed. Basecamp and the GPS show the same map without any complaints.

I've tested this on Windows 7 (64bit)with the Version 1.7.4 as well as on Ubuntu Linux (also 64bit) with an older Version 1.7.0. Both run properly with the cp1251 Version and both crash immediately with the cp65001 version.

I've tested this with different maps, it happened not only with one. Additional tests were performed to identify if it's about the map itself or the typfile and it looks like it is about the TYP file. I'm trying to identify here what's wrong with it but:

 * Basecamp and GPS (Oregon 450t) don't complain and show everything
   properly
 * Qlandkarte GT should not crash just because it doesn't like a TYP
   file...

Test files can be downloaded from dropbox, zip file containing the needed files (including also the TYP files) to load into Qlandkarte GT, the map is for Luxembourg and is zipped only ~10MBytes: Working map build with codepage 1251: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/40846569/Freizeitkarte_LUX_Images_cp1251.zip Problematic map build with codepage 65001: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/40846569/Freizeitkarte_LUX_Images_cp65001.zip

Again, the only difference between above two maps is the codepage give during the build of the map and the TYP file.

Thanks for looking into this and probably giving me also a hint what's wrong about the TYP file(s).
