I'm not entirely sure this even qualifies as a bug given how unusual a case it
is:
> x <- list('a')
> name.x <- '\x81'
> Encoding(name.x) <- 'bytes'
> names(x) <- name.x
> x
$`\\x81`[1] "a"> c(x)Error: translating strings with "bytes" encoding is not
allowed
> unlist(x)
Error in unlist(x) :
translating strings with "bytes" encoding is not allowed> letters[name.x]
[1] NA
> letters[[name.x]]
Error: translating strings with "bytes" encoding is not allowed
Presumably the error is coming from `translateCharsUTF8` or similar. I imagine
the "fix" would be to not translate byte encoded names, or not allow them.
This is not really a problem for me as I can easily work around it. Just an
fyi in case it is of interest to you.
Best regards,
Brodie.
