Encoding problems in non-english version (at least in Spanish)

[Tomás F. L.]

Hello.

I use Manjaro OpenRC 16.08 x86_64

Actual version is 0.93.1

I use UTF-8 in all system.

In the 2 last updates of the Shutter, the accented words,at least in Spanish, do not appear correctly, show him like one an unknown symbol �. The default folders to save the captures is "Imágenes" and the program show "Im�genes" and when it try to save show an error:

There was an error saving the image 'home/user/Im�genes/'
Error saving the image 'Selecci�n.png'
.... The file or the directory doesn't exist.

Are you using the shutter or the shutter-bzr package?

[Tomás F. L. (v17564)]

I use the package from AUR repository: /var/cache/pacman/pkg/shutter-0.93.1-6-any.pkg.tar.xz

[Michael Kogan (michael-kogan)]

Please try the shutter-bzr package and let me know if the problem still persists: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/shutter-bzr/

[Tomás F. L. (v17564)]

I tried to install the package shutter-bzr using pamac-manager but an errors appear during the process:

 - gtk2-perl (package not found)

What is the output of

yaourt -S gtk2-perl gnome-vfs-nosmb

?

[Tomás F. L. (v17564)]

yaourt -S gtk2-perl gnome-vfs-nosmb compile without errors.

[Michael Kogan (michael-kogan)]

Ok, perfect! Then please try again installing shutter-bzr.

[Tomás F. L. (v17564)]

No problem with accents, all ok.

[Michael Kogan (michael-kogan)]

Perfect, I will update the non-bzr version in the evening!

[Tomás F. L. (v17564)]

I have just received an update of two packages:

- gnome-vfs-nosmb-2.24.4-9-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
- gnome-vfs-perl-1.082-6-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

but don't resolve the issue.

Also i need "removed gnome-vfs (2.24.4-10)" for a conflict between packages:

[Michael Kogan (michael-kogan)]

Yes, you need to remove gnome-vfs since this package no longer exists and therefore I have changed the dependency of gnome-vfs-perl from gnome-vfs to gnome-vfs-smb. Remove gnome-vfs to switch over to gnome-vfs-nosmb:

yaourt -Rdd gnome-vfs
yaourt -Syua

I included the better patch from shutter-bzr into shutter. Please test if the bad characters problem is now also fixed in the non-bzr shutter package.

[Tomás F. L. (v17564)]

I run your commands and this is his output:

yaourt -Rdd gnome-vfs
