desktop-packages team mailing list archive

[David Ayers <ayers@xxxxxxxx>]

Is there any chance that this issue will be fixed in Maverick and Natty?
(I haven't been able to install Oneiric on any VM/via test drive yet due to bugs in the installer so I haven't tested it there yet)

Title:
  Evolution mailing list does not render accents correctly

Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool:
  Fix Released
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “evolution” source package in Lucid:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Uploaded to lucid-proposed:
  evolution (2.28.3-0ubuntu10.3) lucid-proposed

  Test case:
  1. install the version from -proposed
  2. in the same or similar layout than described below, try to answer to a mail address with an accent
  3. report here that the accent is correctly displayed in the mail view

  -----------------

  Under Ubuntu Gutsy, evolution 2.12.1, env var LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8

  When creating a mailing list (shift+ctrl+L from the address book) and
  you select a accentuated name from your address book to be included in
  the mailing list, it is not rendered correctly in the contact selector
  not in the mailing list view.

  Instead of displaying  :
  "Sébastien ABEILLE <sebastien.abeille@xxxxxxxxxx>"
  it is displaying :
  "=?ISO-8859-1?Q?S=E9bastien?= ABEILLE <sebastien.abeille@xxxxxxxxxx>"

  Screenshot attached.

  There are no problems to render a accentuated name in a contact entry,
  problem is only with mailing lists.

  I had a look at #146184 which is also a rendering problem in mailing
  list display, but with html special characters, fixed in 2.21.90,
  which I can not test currently.

  Would be nice if someone could try to reproduce it with Hardy see if
  it is still there.
