[Bug 862490] [NEW] Seg fault on certain language & locale combinations (non UTF-8)

 

Public bug reported:

OpenShot 1.4 will seg fault when not using a UTF-8 locale, combined with
a non-English language.  When our translation system (i.e. gettext)
returns translation strings, they are in UTF-8.  GTK runs in the user's
current locale, and thus, a crash.
