Package: localization-config Version: 1.03 Severity: important Tags: patch When running update-locale-config the config file '/etc/kde3/system.kdeglobals' is created. In this file the country and language as well as the preferred encoding is configured. Nowadays KDE find the correct values using the configured locale and configuring explicitly via '/etc/kde3/system.kdeglobals' just makes kpersonalizer popup on first login to KDE. It also configures the charset to use, which is in (almost) all cases non unicode. The charset configured is also not depending on the encoding part of the locale supplied when calling update-locale-config (e.g. not UTF-8 for de_DE.UTF-8). As Debian has switched to default to unicode before etch release I think this make this bug important. We currently test a modified version of localization-config in Debian Edu including the attached patch. If problems caused by this patch show up I'll report here.
