Text encoding inconsistency

[seguso]

Binary package hint: kdebase

Hello. I am running Dapper and Gnome. Some filenames with umlauts (a german special character) look correct in gnome and wrong in kde (konqueror, k3b...). See screenshot.

The output of "locale" is

LANG=it_IT.UTF-8@euro
LANGUAGE=it_IT.UTF-8@euro
LC_CTYPE="it_IT.UTF-8@euro"
LC_NUMERIC="it_IT.UTF-8@euro"
LC_TIME="it_IT.UTF-8@euro"

The filename looks right in nautilus and wrong in k3b.

I'm not sure if it's the same bug as this, but I have a problem with Amarok and K3b (not sure what other apps it affects) with which, for example, a lowercase 'd' will display as an uppercase 'B'.

It seems this can be resolved by removing the @euro from your locale.

For example, launch k3b with the following command line:

LANG=it_IT.UTF-8 k3b

Can anyone reproduce this with either Gutsy or Hardy? Is it still an issue? Thanks!
