Hello, I am seeing crashes in gnome-terminal when I use the midnight commander. This issue seems to be pango related. I reported this issue 7 weeks ago. See http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=113284 . I think it might have to do something with the fact that I use ISO-8859-15 as my charset, since the crash seems to appear in a call to g_utf8_next_char(). Should g_utf8_next_char() handle other charsets graciously? If not, then how can I use my system with another charset than UTF-8? Shouldn't pango handle other charsets as well? Has this changed in 1.3? When studying the pango rpm I noticed a reference to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=121488 . In that bug report Owen states: "Is it really worth rewriting stuff in the 1.2.x branch, which will shortly be dead." What does this comment mean with respect to the support of pango for Fedora 1 and RHEL 3? Leonard. -- mount -t life -o ro /dev/dna /genetic/research
