https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D263184 --- Comment #5 from J.R. Oldroyd <fbsd@opal.com> --- (In reply to Michael Buch from comment #4) Things work well already with UTF-8 characters in ssids. In fact, it should work fine as long as LC_CTYPE matches the type of data. Gtk/pango already convert unrecognized sequences to UTF-8 Replacement Characters. 802.11 does not define ssid contents or character set and ssids can contain= any arbitrary octet sequence. One could say that wifimgr should examine the ss= id octets and do something with sequences that gtk/pango will not be able to display, but the problem is knowing what sequences are not valid when there= is no way of knowing what character set (if any) the data is in. Each received ssid could be in different character set or be just arbitrary octets. Ther= e's no need for wifimgr to check for invalid UTF-8 because gtk/pango already do= es that. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
