Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: texmaker
Along the guidelines:
1) Intrepid 8.10 (i386), Jaunty 9.04 (AMD64) both fully updated
2) in Jaunty:
texmaker:
Installiert: 1.8-1
Kandidat: 1.8-1
Versions-Tabelle:
*** 1.8-1 0
500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/universe Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
installed locale: de_DE.UTF-8
3) Double-Clicking on a .tex-file in any nautilus window or on the desktop
should open the file in texmaker, starting texmaker from any path with
"texmaker /path/to/file.tex", "texmaker relative/path/to/file.tex" or other
commands with the "-master" option or line numbers should open a texmaker
window with the file.
4) Steps from 3) lead to the desired result, when working with files in paths
without umlauts (may contain whitespace, see below); when Umlauts (äüöß) are
contained anywhere in the path, an empty texmaker window pops open (no notice
on the command line); exception: "texmaker file.tex" is called directly on a
path containing umlauts.
Steps to reproduce:
1. create 4 subdirectories in a temporary location: "Verzeichnis", "Ver
zeichnis", "Värzeichnis", "Vär zeichnis"
2. put files "test.tex" and "täst.tex" in each subdirectory
3. try "texmaker Verzeichnis/test.tex" in all combinations
Results:
(+)texmaker Verzeichnis/test.tex, texmaker Ver\ zeichnis/test.tex - opens a
texmaker window with test.tex opened
(-) texmaker ANYSUBDIR/täst.tex - opens a texmaker window without a file
(-) texmaker Värzeichnis/test.tex, texmaker Vär\ zeichnis/test.tex - opens a
texmaker window without a file
4. open the directories with a window manager (I use Gnome) and double click on
the files
(+) test.tex in "Verzeichnis" and "Ver zeichnis" are openend in the new
texmaker window
(-) in all other cases a texmaker window without a file opens
This bug is quite annoying, as descriptive path names may contain
special characters and files on this paths have to be opened via the
dialogues in texmaker. By the way: the same problem arises with cyrillic
characters (same as with umlauts).
For any questions feel free to contact me.
