GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 308238
REMOTE_CHARSET is applied to filenames on local side
Last modified: 2008-11-16 17:58:27 UTC
1. Select ru_RU.KOI8-R locale on local side. 2. Create any filename in russian charset. 3. Start gFTP and look, connect to any russian FTP site hosted on Windows: local filenames are displayed correctly, but remote filenames are corrupted. 4. Press Ctrl+O, assign remote charset to windows-1251. 5. Now gFTP displays remote filenames correctly, but local filenames are corrupted. 6. When gFTP copies files from Windows site to localhost, filenames are corrupted (still Win1251-encoded instead of KOI8-R).
I confirm this bug. There is a bug <a href=http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156371>#156371</a> which is in direct dependency with this one. If one of those will be fixed, then another one also will be fixed. This is as far as I can see it.
Hi, This is fixed in CVS. I created a tarball at http://www.gftp.org/gftp-test.tar.bz2 that has the latest code from CVS. Please let me know either way if this works. It is fixed for the local, FTP, FTPS and SSH protocols. It is not fixed in the HTTP, HTTPS and FSP protocols. I will fix those whenever I get confirmation that the other protocols are working properly. Brian
fixed as per last comment
