[Bug 1377873] Re: deja-dup fails to restore missing files, that contain "german umlaut" (ä,ö,ü,Ä,Ö,Ü).
Hello.
I want to bring to your knowledge, that we (in the german-commmunity)
still see a lot of people having this problem.
If you want some reference, you can find a new theme here:
https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/datensicherung-fehlgeschlagen-was-tun
(in german).
With this bug, I can't recommend usage of Déjà-Dup for anyone speaking
german. This is very bad, because this problem is the preinstalled
software in Ubuntu and used to be the most user-friendly software in the
past.
Please set the priority and fix it or tell me, what to do against it.
Best Regards
Vej
