Hi,

I was recently out of disk space and tried to find a new hard disk on my
favourite shop. The following warning occured:

Speichern der Lesezeichen in /home/jens/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/bookmarks.xml
nicht möglich. Der angegebene Fehler lautet: Auf dem Gerà ¤t ist kein
Speicherplatz mehr verfà ¼gbar. Die Meldung wird nur einmal angezeigt. Die
Ursache sollte so rasch wie möglich beseitigt werden. Wahrscheinlich ist die
Festplattenkapazität erschöpft.

English:
Could not save bookmarks in /home/jens/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/bookmarks.xml.
The returned error is: No diskspace available on device. The message is displayed
only once. Fix the problem as soon as possible. Probably the hard disk is full.

The problem is that the returned error message is wrongly encoded.

Whereas the system used UTF-8 as default, konqueror assumes ASCII (latin1).
Expected: "Auf dem Gerät ist kein Speicherplatz mehr verfügbar."
Recieved: "Auf dem Gerà ¤t ist kein Speicherplatz mehr verfà ¼gbar."

That's the result of converting an UTF-8 encoded string from latin1 to UTF-8.

an other way to reproduce:

Since I'm currently not out of hard disk space I need another error
message. I tried:

$ chmod a-w ~/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/bookmarks.xml

Now I started konqueror 3.5.5 "release 45" (from a OpenSuse 10.2
system, but it shouldn't matter) in a classical fr_FR locale (uses latin1):
$ LANG=fr_FR konqueror
and obtained after trying to save bookmarks: "Permission non accordée."

The same using fr_FR.utf-8 results in "Permission non accordà ©e."

(The German string doesn't contain non 8-bit characters, that's why I
used French ones.)

Jens
