Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.6) Installed from: Gentoo Packages There's an ability to send messages in auhorization response. If they were sent in Russian, the problems with encoding (cp1251 with my utf8) emerged.
Created attachment 20522 [details] Trivial patch to fix encoding in auth request/reply reason. Please review this patch. It fixes handling of authorisation request/reply reason's encoding. The assumption in the original code was that reason field sent in authorisation request/reply is in latin1 encoding. This assumption is wrong: text fields in SSI protocol are in UTF-8. Unfortunately, this patch is against KDE/3.5 branch: I don't have KDE-4 development environment. If there are no objections, I can commit this.
Fortunately, this is already fixed in KDE-4. Consider my patch to be the backport of KDE-4 fix. :-)
Patch looks good. Please commit.
This is not the first time I use "BUG:" line in Subversion commit message, and it does not work. Trying to close this bug manually.
