it's more this .po http://svnweb.mageia.org/soft/drakx/trunk/perl-install/share/po/pl.po?view=markup but indeed it seems ok

Comment 3 Thierry Vignaud 2012-12-22 16:33:41 CET

we use the uc() function to upcase titles.
Depending on the pragma, result differs:

$ perl -e '$s = "ProszÄ czekaÄ\n"; warn $s, uc($s)'
ProszÄ czekaÄ
PROSZÄ CZEKAÄ
$ perl -Mutf8 -e '$s = "ProszÄ czekaÄ - WybÃ³r noÅnikÃ³w \n"; warn $s, uc($s)'
ProszÄ czekaÄ - WybÃ³r noÅnikÃ³w 
PROSZÄ CZEKAÄ - WYBÃR NOÅNIKÃW 
$ perl -Mlocale -e '$s = "ProszÄ czekaÄ - WybÃ³r noÅnikÃ³w \n"; warn $s, uc($s)'
ProszÄ czekaÄ - WybÃ³r noÅnikÃ³w 
PROSZÄ CZEKAÄ - WYBÃ³R NOÅNIKÃ³W 
$ perl -Mutf8 -Mlocale -e '$s = "ProszÄ czekaÄ - WybÃ³r noÅnikÃ³w \n"; warn $s, uc($s)'
ProszÄ czekaÄ - WybÃ³r noÅnikÃ³w 
PROSZÄ CZEKAÄ - WYBÃ³R NOÅNIKÃ³W 

using 'no locale' or "use locale ':not_characters'" also works in a one liner.
However, it doesn't in drakx (yet)

OK, issue is that translated strings are not tagged as UTF-8 at perl level.
I need to evaluate the consequences.
