KDE 4.8.1 is out and we still have this problem. I can't believe this bug existed for 4 years now and like I read in one of the comments is running for the title "MOST ANNOYING BUG EVER AFFECTING the largest number of users which the KDE developers decided to WONTFIX?"

I had problems with this in Ubuntu years ago and like I had installed gnome too I just used Nautilus and fixed the name of the files. Never crossed my mind that this bug were so old and affected so many of us.

It's a shame that this remains a problem for end-users after all this time. I guess the problem was in the original design of how to manage encoding names when they designed KDE 4, or maybe they thought this was a "minor" problem or something like that. Now I bet this won't have any solution until KDE 5 or something like that is born [hopefully].

I'll try what comment #100 says and see what happens. I don't want to install nautilus and a lot of s**t just to rename files.
