Package: libsdl1.2debian Version: 1.2.9-4 Severity: normal
The unicode member of the keysym structure is broken when running with SDL in unicode locales. For example, when pressing the "ö" key on a german keyboard in the C (or de_DE.ISO-8859-1) locale, I correctly get "246" (unicode character number of "ö"). Under an UTF-8 locale (e.g. de_DE.UTF-8), I get 195 for ö (and other non-ascii latin1 characters such as ü or ·). Incidentally, "195" is the first octet of the UTF-8 representation of those characters, so it seems SDL just puts the first octet of the encoded character into the unicode member. This bug makes it imposible to enter non-ascii characters in UTf-8 locales (and probably every non-latin1 locale, € doesn't work in de_DE.ISO-8859-9 either). -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15.1 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages libsdl1.2debian depends on: ii libsdl1.2debian-alsa 1.2.9-4 Simple DirectMedia Layer (with X11 libsdl1.2debian recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
