Re: Garnome and Solaris 2.6 - X problems

[Rémi Cohen-Scali <Remi Cohen-Scali com>]

What iconv did you use ? Solaris native one or libiconv. It seems you 
have got problems for
translating UTF-8.
On Solaris 2.8 both are OK (Solaris iconv and GNU libiconv) but you must 
be consistent at
build time and at run time.
For Solaris 2.6 I don't know the iconv completion. You should perhaps 
use libiconv.
Also be sure the  library is available at runtime (On Solaris8 I 
personaly use  LD_CONFIG
env var and the 'crle' command to simulate ldconfig behavior but I don't 
know is Solaris 2.6
have such a command)
