[Bug 406142] [NEW] Grub2 menu doesn't list entries with foreign characters

[Yves Lavoie]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub2

Description:    Ubuntu karmic (development branch)
Release:        9.10

grub-pc:
  Installed: 1.96+20090611-1ubuntu4
  Candidate: 1.96+20090611-1ubuntu4
  Version table:
 *** 1.96+20090611-1ubuntu4 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  Grub2 menu won't display entries with foreign characters. The entry is
accounted for and the previous entry is displayed instead.

  I suggest that grub_isprint and grub_isalpha be corrected to include
accented characters. UTF and multibyte characters will definetely be a
challenge but ISO8859-* should be feasible.
