[gentoo-dev] Gentoo and UTF-8

[Heinrich Wendel]

Hi,

Gentoo's UTF-8 support is not very good at the moment. Yesterday I commited a 
few ebuilds with UTF-8 support (ncurses,dialog,grep). To take advantage of 
them you have to put "unicode" in your useflags and set a UTF-8 locale on 
your system. There are quite a few applications that have problems with 
UTF-8. The next items on my todo list are midnightcommander and sed. I'll add 
a UTF-8 herd tomorrow if there are no complains. Fellows are always 
welcome :)

mfg, heinrich
