Trivial patch which fixes g_unescape_uri_string() (547 bytes, patch)
2004-07-26 12:02 UTC, Michael Natterer 		none Details | Review

Description Michael Natterer 2004-07-26 11:35:36 UTC 
The recent changes made to ditch utf-8 conversion in
g_filename_from_uri() and g_filename_to_uri() are
incomplete.

g_unescape_uri_string() still tries to utf-8 validate
the unescaped string.

Suggest marking the released glib-2.4.4 tarball as
"don't use" and make a glib-2.4.5 release ASAP :-(
Comment 1 Sven Neumann 2004-07-26 11:39:26 UTC 
This is the cause for bug #148140 and bug #148371 (and probably more bug reports
in other applications).

Trivial patch which fixes g_unescape_uri_string()

There is another issue, the hostname. It is still
utf-8 validated on both conversion from and to URI.

That looks buggy too...
