Window title starting with Chinese character doesn't show normally. #783

Closed bladez97 closed 2 months ago

bladez97 commented 2 months ago

Expected behaviour

The title text shows correctly on window's title bar

Actual behaviour

The title text disappears when a window's title starts with Chinese character.
However if the title only contains Chinese chatacter, but not start with Chinese character, it is fine.
Installed another WM metacity and tried "metacity --replace" in terminal and the issue is no longer exist.
Also verified this bug exists in Ubuntu MATE Live ISO enviroment.

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

Start Caja
Create 2 folders, and name them "中文abc" and "abc中文" in which one of them start with Chinese character
Open them in two different window
The window of folder "中文abc" has no text in its title bar.

Looks like a commit fixing this is in master and 1.28 and cherrypicked to 1.26, but the last 1.26 release was before it (in fact right before it) and there has not been another 1.26 release since then.

Right now we have another MATE-wide Travis issue that I don't know how to fix, so someone else on the team will have to deal with the Travis issue (cannot deploy) so a new 1.26 release can go out with this fixed

This is a duplicate of https://github.com/mate-desktop/marco/issues/757 the commit that fixed it in the 1.26 branch that has not had a release since the commit in question is https://github.com/mate-desktop/marco/commit/a938884530839152c9854dd0d8248b36c3c2e3fd

If they want to, the Ubuntu-MATE team could fix this for now in their package by applying the above commit at the distro level before building marco. So can any other distro still on 1.26, the current branch is 1.28 and contains this fix as well
