[Bug 60681] konversation does not show what is actually sent

[Jukka Suomela]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: konversation

If Konversation is configured to use iso-8859-1 character set, and if I
enter a message with some characters outside this character set, the
following seems to happen:

- Konversation silently translates the non-iso-8859-1 characters to "?"
when it sends the message to the server.

- However, the chat window, the irc log, etc. show the original message.

Thus, one never knows what the other people actually see, especially if
some text is copy-pasted from somewhere else, and it contains characters
that look similar to normal iso-8859-1 characters.

I would expect one of the following:

1) Konversation does the translation and shows the result in the chat
window.

2) Konversation gives a warning, highlights the problems, and lets me
edit the message.

(Package konversation, version 0.19-0ubuntu4.)
