Hello all, I've recently upgraded Thunar to 1.0.1 and now the menù shows the italian translation of "Property", "Proprietà" as "ProprietÃ" which is quite disturbing.


Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
à is shown as Ã

Expected Results:  
no Ã, but à.

I didn't see any wrong charset in the latest revision (both master and xfce-4.6). Where/How did you install thunar?

Gentoo system
xfce4 version here is 4.6.1
system is currently working on utf8 (kernel default language):

# zgrep -i utf /proc/config.gz 
CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT="utf8"
CONFIG_NLS_UTF8=y

and environment wise:

# cat /etc/env.d/02locale 
LANG="it_IT.UTF-8"
LANGUAGE="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_ALL="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_CTYPE=it_IT.utf8

everythings seems to work correctly (encoding-wise speaking) apart from that particular string in the menu(s)

Mmh, so you are using the stable version? Than it could be that the string indeed got fixed in the meantime.

You can try that: download the recent po file, compile it and install it (either replace the existing *cough* better make a backup).

wget http://git.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/plain/po/it.po
msgfmt it.po -o Thunar.mo
# just to make sure where it is installed
ls /usr/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/Thunar.mo

and as root:
cp /usr/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/Thunar.mo Thunar.mo.bak
cp Thunar.mo /usr/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/

Now quit thunar (Thunar -Q) and start a new instance (Thunar --daemon). Check the string, it should be OK.

That's right, it is OK, the menu inside thunar shows the right menu entry
Instead right clicking on the desktop I still have the wrong encoded string
(I've logged off to be sure everything would be loaded correctly)

I checked in xfdesktop and it seems that it got fixed there too.

You can do the same with this file if you want it fixed temporary on your system. I'm marked the bug as fixed for now.

I agree! Just checked it and it is :)
Thank you very much :)
