Re: DL Error : File not UTF8

[Matej Urban <matej urban gmail com>]

Well, that is the problem.

As I see it (just checked it also, and recommit it), all the files are affected. The problem is there is nothing wrong, as it seems, and I have nothing to add.

Hello Rafael, Matej and all others,

Unfortunately, a re-upload of the translation didn't do the trick. The file is indeed UTF-8 encoded, so this doesn't seem to be the problem here.

I opened an issue in the DL issue tracker here [1]. Matej, I think it would be beneficial if you could add any additional info you have (e.g. what module(s) is/are affected at your end). Thanks!

Cheers,

Philipp

Hello Matej and Phillip,

The culprit for this issue should have been fixed already. Personally,
I don't see this issue anymore in my translation actions.

I suggest that you try re-uploading the PO file that is presenting
this encoding error in order to work around the encoding issue already
fixed.

If the problem persists, I suggest the following:
- run `file <your-po-filename>` locally, to make sure the file is UTF-8
- file an issue in Damned Lies issue tracker with more information
(e.g. link to page in damned lies with the issue)

Good luck!

Best regards,
Rafael Fontenelle
