Description Jaime Torres 2008-08-30 21:56:33 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

In 4.1 and 4.1.60 svn trunk

Opening the addressbook and create contacts with non-ascii characters in the contact name, like the spanish ñ (Juan Español), the french-catalan ç, ....

Mark them and with the right button select the option "send contact".

I get the following boxes:

Could not start process Unable to create io-slave:
klauncher said: Protocolo desconocido «».
.

And then more information:

The file or folder /tmp/kde-jtorres/kaddressbookkWUeXJ//_sdfkjhï¿½1eï¿½1eï¿½1wï¿½1wï¿½1ï¿½'file:///tmp/kde-jtorres/kaddressbookkWUeXJ//_aÃ±aÃ±a1.vcf does not exist.

(for a contact with name sdfkjhñeñeñwñwñç)

The file or folder /tmp/kde-jtorres/kaddressbookkWUeXJ//_ï¿½1wpeidkï¿½'file:///tmp/kde-jtorres/kaddressbookkWUeXJ//_aÃ±aÃ±a1.vcf does not exist.

(for a contact with name ñwpeidká2)

Not reproducible on 1.11.2. I could sent contact with both names mentioned by reporter.
