Subject: xlib6g: Cannot enter local characters with correct locale setup
To: submit@bugs.debian.org
X-Mailer: bug 3.1.7
Reply-To: slapic@lme.linux.hu
Package: xlib6g
Version: 3.3.2.3a-8
Well, I'm not sure that this is a bug in xlib6g, but I can't figure it out.
The situatuation is:
I'm in Hungary, so the correct LANG is hu_HU. That works most of the cases.
When I start an xterm, rxvt, gnome-term, etc with LANG="C" or no LANG setup, I can enter our national characters like aacute, odoubleacute, etc in them.
When I start one of the abve programs wit LANG=hu_HU, I cannot enter any of our national characters.
I'm using XKB for keyboard mapping (setxkbmap hu).
I've checked locale also:
orion% export LANG=hu_HU
orion% locale
LANG=hu_HU
LC_CTYPE="hu_HU"
LC_NUMERIC="hu_HU"
LC_TIME="hu_HU"
LC_COLLATE="hu_HU"
LC_MONETARY="hu_HU"
LC_MESSAGES="hu_HU"
LC_ALL=

Hi,
there is no bug here (hence it is being closed now). If you want to
input national characters, you must specify their encoding. It worked
with XFree86 3.3, but it was a kludge.
Thanks for your report.
Denis
