           Summary: broken encoding or database conversion regarding Umlaut
           Product: WineHQ Apps Database
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: appdb-unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: hoehle at users.sourceforge.net


Since the recent restyling of winehq.org, Umlauts such as "äüöÄÖÜ" are
not displayed correctly anymore in AppDB. See e.g. "Die Völker 2/The Nations"
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=11470

Instead, a "?" is displayed (typical for unrecognized UTF-8 characters in some
parsers).

This affects:
- my login name, in the initial greetings screen
- Category: Main > Games > Strategy Games > Die V�lker 2 > 2.02
- Name  Die V�lker 2

OTOH, in bugzilla, comments of mine are correctly displayed with Umlauts.

I'm using firefox 2.0.x or 3.x.y

Is it just a matter of web server configuration, or was the application
database incorrectly converted or backed-up at some point in time?

Regards,
 Jörg Höhle
