[Bug 580961] Re: unzip fails to deal correctly with filename encodings

 

Martin, do I read the Changelog correctly that you assumed the Ubuntu
delta for unzip 5.52-12ubuntu1 only concerned UTF-8 and thus you dropped
it when Debian released 6.0-1?  In fact, I believe this then introduced
a regression that made bug 10979 (or this bug, whichever you prefer ;-))
to return.  Actually, unicode is mostly not an issue and dealt with in
6.x.  What's remaining problematic is non-UTF-8, non-ASCII filenames in
zip files.  It's my understanding that's what this has been about all
along.  I believe we will need to reintroduce a similar patch or look
into natspec which seems to be able to deal more elegantly and
automatically with the matter.
