Hello Alastair,
AFAICT Eugeniy's analysis shows that this issue is unrelated to his patch
for #384787, but rather a separate slang issue.
What is your take on it and how can we best proceed to resolve it?
If at all possible, I'd like to see it resolved before the RC1 release,
but that is

Eugeniy: are you by any chance still working on this?
No, I am not going to work on that piece of crap called slang2. I was
able to read code of slang1 but not slang2.

Severity: serious
I just noticed an important issue in newt that shows up in daily builds of
the installer. For languages (CJK) using double width characters,
calculation of line length is incorrect. It only affects a few languages,
but unfortunately affects
This bug is really related to #384787, in sence that something was
change in newt, or more likely - in slang. It looks like functions
SLsmg_write_string and SLsmg_write_nstring now work incorrecly. This bug
can be seen without d-i by using the following scripts:
whiptail --menu test 20 50 3 1 日本語
clone 392942 -1
reassing -1 slang2
block 392942 by -1
thanks
This is cleany bug in slang2.
slsmg.c contains:
void SLsmg_write_nstring (char *str, unsigned int n)
{
...
if (UTF8_Mode)
umax = SLutf8_skip_chars (u, u+width, n, width, 0);
...
SLsmg_write_chars (u, umax);
6 matches
