Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution-data-server

At this site we would like to deploy Evolution to access the Exchange
server. As it happens, here are usernames with umlauts (i.e. non-ascii-
characters) in use.

This can be fixed by a relatively small change to the NTLM
implementation in libsoup and evolution-data-server (negotiating and
using Unicode instead of 8-bit “OEM” encoding), example patches are on
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=576571 and I’m currently
packaging updated versions of the packages found in hardy.

Is there a chance that this change will then enter hardy-updates?

Thanks,
Joachim
