Description Dotan Cohen 2007-04-07 16:23:09 UTC

Version:           0.9.1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

All my Digikam tags are in Hebrew, as utf-8. I am certain that they are utf-8 as I had to manually edit the digikam.db database to transfer my hundreds of tags from f-spot. Also, my locale in utf-8.

I accidentally deleted a photo from digikam, so I simply went to the KDE trash bin and restored it. However, it's tag came back corrupted. You can see it here:

From the page of decipering wrong Hebrew encodings it is easy to see that Digikam trying to display the tag as ISO-8859-1:

Dotan, 

This file still valid using digiKam 0.9.4 or 0.10.0 ?

I cannot currently triage this bug as Bug 174807 sends deleted files to an alternative Trash, not KDE's Trash. I am marking this bug as depending on that one.

Dotan,

Please let's me hear if this file still valid with digiKam for KDE4...

I cannot reproduce on my test system, resolving as fixed. Thanks!
