iconv must not be used under Linux and Gentoo apparantly forces you to do so, which breaks OpenTTD.

I cannot reproduce this bug on my linux installation.

The name is just passed at UTF-8 string into the file system, so it *should* just work alright. Is the filename shown correctly in the load window? If that's the case the application you use to check the files in the directory doesn't handle UTF-8 properly.

The filename cannot be shown in the load window.

What file system are you using?
Comment by coincoin (coincoin) - Saturday, 28 April 2007, 11:18 GMT
ext3.
I tried to create a filename with an UTF-8 name and it works, it's displayed with ls.

Does it happen when you run openttd from the console, if so, what does `locale` tell?
Comment by coincoin (coincoin) - Saturday, 28 April 2007, 12:15 GMT
Using en_US@utf-8 locale, it works.
Using en_US, fr_FR, fr_FR@euro, C locales, it bugs saying :
dbg: [Iconv] Error converting 'Non nommé, 1er Jan 1951éé.sav'. Errno 84
when trying to list the directory and :
dbg: [Iconv] Error converting '/home/chammm/.openttd/save/Non nommé, 1er Jan 1951éééééé.sav'. Errno 84
when saving

hmm, iconv... are you running OSX?
If not, then iconv is not needed; please try to reconfigure (and recompile) with --without-iconv as paramater to configure.

I'm using a gentoo linux.

It's working for all locales without iconv.

If there is no need for iconv on a linux, perhaps the "unicode" flag (which activates iconv) should be removed from the gentoo ebuild.

I've filed a bug report with Gentoo about it: http://bugs.gentoo.org/176474
Comment by Remko Bijker (Rubidium) - Monday, 30 April 2007, 20:47 GMT
This seems to be a 'bug' in Gentoo's ebuild, because linux does not need (or rather breaks) when iconv is used.

This is already fixed in trunk, but it is (almost) impossible to backport this 'fix' because trunk's Makefile/configure system is totally different.
