Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 9851
KOI8-U encoding is not supported
Last modified: 2003-04-14 18:56:49 UTC
it actually happens with 1.0.1 - english version when I set locale to uk_UA.KOI8-U and try type in any cyrillic letters, I get sometimg like "A[cross]|[A with ']" etc, i.e. clearly not cyrillic. If i set locale to uk_UA.KOI8-R or uk_UA.UTF-8, it works fine. I conclude that there's no KOI8-U encoding support. KOI8-U is closely similar to KOI8-R which is supported indeed. KOI8-U is RFC2319, and it has a homepage http://www.net.ua/KOI8-U/index.html You can see list of differences from koi8-r in APPENDIX A of RFC2319, as in ftp://ftp.lucky.net/pub/koi8-u/RFC2319.txt additional information: from #openoffice.org@irc.openprojects.net reals> bodq: ok, it seems the easiest approach is: a) send in the jca b) make needed changes in sal/textenc <reals> bodq: id should be quite simple really
Created attachment 4919 [details] The proposed patch
Created attachment 4920 [details] uk_UA.xml to support uk_UA locale (Ukrainian)
There happens to be a patch corresponding to the issue, along with uk_UA.xml file. Both files are (c) altLinux Team (www.altlinux.ru) Please, take a look. The issue still hangs 3 months after submission.
Please take a look at fixed issue 3913 for the KOI8-U encoding, and issue 3914 for the uk_UA.xml locale data file, where there were still some issues left. Please check i18npool/source/localedata/data/uk_UA.xml and state comments in issue 3914 if necessary, thanks. As the original issue was with KOI8-U encoding I mark this as dupe of 3913. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 3913 ***
close dup
