[GuidelinesChange] UTF8 filenames

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A new Guideline has been added to the Encoding section:

'''
Non-ASCII Filenames
Filenames that contain non-ASCII characters must be encoded as UTF-8.
Since there's no way to note which encoding the filename is in, using
the same encoding for all filenames is the best way to ensure users can
read the filenames properly. If upstream ships filenames that are not
encoded in UTF-8 you can use a utility like convmv (from the convmv
package) to convert the filename in your %install section.
'''

This change was approved by the Fedora Packaging Committee and ratified 
by FESCO.
