Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: k3b
When I attempted to backup my mail (and much else) to DVD using K3B it
stopped quickly with the standard hyper-optimistic success noises. I
checked the log, and it indicated:
Using ACLU000.MSF;1 for Profiles/Thunderbird/default.x3c/Mail/Local
Folders/Political Action.sbd/aclu.msf (ACLU.msf)
Incorrectly encoded string (üõ·) encountered.
Possibly creating an invalid Joliet extension. Aborting.
:-( write failed: Input/output error
I'll attach that file, and the log. I understand this is not strictly
K3B's fault, but it should at least detect that an error has occured. I
think the bug may be in growisofs. Either way, complete failure is an
unacceptable response to an invalid string. Even mangling would be
better.
** Affects: k3b (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed

K3B creates coasters when invalid strings are encountered, and still reports
success
