Subject: Bug#1226: koi8-r encoding selects wrong font
X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=kde-bugs-dist&m=92451628713783

package: kdelibs
version: 1.1-3rh5x

When I select koi8-r encoding in font dialog (e.g. in kterm) for a font
that has different encodings it reports unknown encoding and doesn't use

koi8-r. After I made modification described below in
kdelibs-1.1/kdecore/kchartables.cpp everything seems to be in order.

$ diff -p kchartables.cpp.orig kchartables.cpp

I suggest checking if this modification can cause any problems and
adding it to next release.
