Starwars is in the xscreensaver-gl-extra package. The bug can be reproduced
with:
/usr/lib/xscreensaver/starwars -program 'echo write ö here'
(or any other non-ascii character in the string)
Unfortunately, the xscreensaver code is not very good at UTF-8. It uses
iso-8859-1, so this will work:
/usr/lib/xscreensaver/starwars -program 'echo write ö here | iconv -f utf8 -t
iso-8859-1'
** Changed in: xscreensaver (Ubuntu)
Status: Incomplete => Confirmed
