Description Denis Jacquerye 2007-03-27 07:28:29 UTC
When saving a file, if there's already a file existing with a canonically
equivalent name, they should conflict and be considered to have the same name,
i.e. ask the user to overwrite the other.

For example, a file "école" is in the working directory, and a file "école"
is going to be saved. These are the same name for the user, they should be
considered as such by Gnumeric.
Note: first name has <U+0065 LATIN SMALL LETTER E + U+0301 COMBINING ACUTE
ACCENT>
second name has <U+00E9 LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH ACUTE>

When saving a new file, the name should probably be normalized, NFC is probably
the safest for compatibility with legacy systems.

I mean EOG, not Gnumeric, sorry.

I don't think we want to fix it at EOG level, but GTK+. As I see there's bug #423242, I'm closing as a duplicate of it.
