[gentoo-user] console + su + utf8

[gentoo-user] console + su + utf8

[Marco Antonio Manzo]

Hello list,

I have just finished building everything for unicode support, looks like
most of the stuff is working, but there are some issues:

1) In the console, I can type 'ñ' but I can't type 'áéíóú', that is,
accents. In my X11 terminal I can tho, I know they're different, I'm
jsut making the point.

2) When I type 'su' it segfaults, but if I type 'su -' it just scales to
root without problems.

Btw, I followed the gento-wiki guide to utf8 and the gentoo.org
documents for Utf8 as well.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Well I think I found the answer to this one, it's not caused by the
change to unicode, it's caused by sys-apps/shadow-4.0.11.1-r1 accordly
to http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101282


I hope someone has the answer for the first issue tho.
