I had never heard of this application, but it seems to be a 11k lines perl script, not really something I'd want to debug...

Also, it actually starts but doesn't display a window.

sorry you indeed only made one commit

Hi Alex!

I am getting similar warnings, but it starts fine here - does it display the system tray icon which you can click to bring the main window (or right click for options)? I'm using Mageia 5 with KDE 4.

I tested Mageia 5 Cauldron KDE, LXDE, MATE: there is nothing in tray and no main window for shutter:(

Yes, it does.

shutter works fine inside a Mageia 5 i586 VM. You seem to have some strange problems.

Seriously?
He did see a problem and report it.

Let's try it:
[tv@localhost gdb]$  sudo urpmi shutter
(...)
[tv@localhost gdb]$ shutter

Last thing it does is reading /usr/share/shutter/resources/icons/sel_window_menu.svg

Adding the following to Encode.pm @line 215:
    use MDK::Common qw(backtrace); warn ">> HERE\n". backtrace(), "\n";

results in:

Adding eval makes it go further:
    my $string = eval {$utf8enc->decode( $octets, $check ) };

So yes it's broken.
Interestingly, it works fine with C locale, but not with another locale.
(. ~/.i18n.C; shutter ) => KO

Summary: shutter does not start => shutter does not start when not using C locale

s/KO/OK/

And the string that causes the issue (for french locale) is:
"_Renommerâ¦"

Yet again a poorly written app that doesn't handle UTF-8 smoothly

Thierry, thank you for tests and confirmed issue.

You're welcome.
Though I won't go further (too much stuff)

My locale is:

<<<<
shlomif@telaviv1:~$ locale
LANG=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_TIME=en_GB.UTF-8

LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_ALL=
shlomif@telaviv1:~$

and shutter works fine there. Can you give an example to an offending locale?

Ah, I can reproduce the problem with this command:

LC_ALL=es_ES.UTF-8 LANG=es_ES.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=es_ES:es shutter

Hi all,

here's more of what I discovered.

With this program:

«
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

#Gettext and filename parsing
use POSIX qw/setlocale/;
use Locale::gettext;

#Set LC_NUMERIC to C to prevent decimal commas (or anything else)
setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, "C");
setlocale( LC_MESSAGES, "" );
my $d = Locale::gettext->domain("shutter");

$d->dir('/usr/share/locale');

print $d->get("Session");
»

I am getting:

shlomif@telaviv1:~$ perl Test.pl
Sessionshlomif@telaviv1:~$

but:

«

It doesn't happen on Ubuntu x86-64 and I also am unable to build the latest Locale::gettext module from source without its tests failing.

What do you mean?
The latest release dates from 2005...

Hi all,

after I built and installed the CPAN module (while ignoring its failed tests), I was able to start shutter fine while using this command line:

So it seems to be a problem with our packaging of Locale::gettext . Reassigning.

I ran "perl Makefile.PL" ; "make" ; "make test" ; "make install" inside the unpacked directory of this archive - https://cpan.metacpan.org/authors/id/P/PV/PVANDRY/gettext-1.05.tar.gz - from https://metacpan.org/release/gettext .

It looks like using Locale::gettext::dgettext(domain, str) instead of $domain->get(str) works better.

eg this works fine:
  print Locale::gettext::dgettext('shutter', "_Rename...");

whereas this doesn't:
  my $d = Locale::gettext->domain("shutter");
  print $d->get("_Rename...");

Anyway, I think it needs quite some patching in order to work as UTF-8 internally.
Meaning:
- initializing gtk:
  Gtk2->set_locale
  though using setlocale() should be OK too
- binding gettext to UTF-8:
Locale::gettext::bind_textdomain_codeset($_, 'UTF-8') foreach qw(shutter-upload-plugins shutter-plugins shutter);

Well, $d->get is :

sub get {
	my ($self, $msgid) = @_;
	$self->_convert(dgettext($self->{domain}, $msgid));
}

sub _convert {
	my ($self, $str) = @_;
	return $str if ($self->{raw});
	# thanks to the use of UTF-8 in bind_textdomain_codeset, the
	# result should always be valid UTF-8 when raw mode is not used.
	if ($self->{emulate}) {
		delete $self->{emulate};
		$self->{raw} = 1;
		my $null = $self->get("");
		if ($null =~ /charset=(\S+)/) {
			$self->{decode_from} = $1;
			$self->{raw} = 0;
		} #else matches the behaviour of glibc - no null entry
		  # means no conversion is done
	}
	if ($self->{decode_from}) {
		return decode($self->{decode_from}, $str);
	} else {
		return decode_utf8($str);
	}
}

And it is expected to work properly instead of throwing a fit on every Unicode codepoint. And people may wish to run Locale::gettext apps from source.

This gives me the same error:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

#Gettext and filename parsing
use POSIX qw/setlocale/;
use Locale::gettext;

#Set LC_NUMERIC to C to prevent decimal commas (or anything else)
setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, "C");
setlocale( LC_MESSAGES, "" );

Locale::gettext::bind_textdomain_codeset($_, 'UTF-8') foreach (qw(shutter-upload-plugins shutter-plugins shutter));
my $d = Locale::gettext->domain("shutter");

$d->dir('/usr/share/locale');

print $d->get("Session");

shutter-0.93.1-rel1-subrel1 was submitted to http://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/ for Mageia 5 and should be available in updates_testing soon. Please test. Assigning to the QA team.

Assignee: shlomif => qa-bugs

Tested mga5_64 and mga5_32,

Testing complete for new shutter-0.93.1-1.1.mga5, I confirm that the locale issue is now fixed for French system.
