Can't translate pathname to UTF-8 #278

Closed jeancf closed 8 months ago

Hi,

I am packaging Tiddlydesktop for the Archlinux distribution (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tiddlydesktop). No biggie, but the packaging script makepkg issues the following warning:

: Can't translate pathname 'usr/share/tiddlydesktop/tiddlywiki/editions/fr-FR/tiddlers/community/editions/_Noteself_ by Danielo Rodríguez.tid' to UTF-8

And the file is not included in the package as a result.

That seems odd, because that file in the TiddlyWiki5 repo has a pathname that's already in UTF-8. Paste the name Rodríguez into xxd and you'll see that the í is 0xc3 0xad, which is correct UTF-8 encoding for U+00ED LATIN SMALL LETTER I WITH ACUTE. I just downloaded the linux64 zip file from https://github.com/TiddlyWiki/TiddlyDesktop/releases/tag/v0.0.18 and it also unzips with the filename already in UTF-8. So this error message seems odd, as there shouldn't be any problems translating a filename into UTF-8 that was already in UTF-8.

Do you still get this error if you run the makepkg step again? Perhaps something changed in the past four months.

The error is still there. But I see that the filename is still correctly encoded in the pkg folder that is used by the tool to create the package. It is at the Compressing package... stage of the process that the error appears. So clearly an issue with Archlinux' makepkg and not with the contents of the original zip file.
