           Summary: user localisation error: wrong program menu entries
                    created in KDE menu upon installation
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.2-rc7
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: msi
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: juergenw_ at web.de


My system: Debian Lenny(stable) - KDE 3.5.10
user locale: de_de at euro (aka. ISO-8859-15) - root locale: de_de.UTF8

Wine seems to be oblivious of german special characters(umlauts), when creating
KDE menu entries upon program installation.
Example for DVD Shrink installation (same with others):

env WINEPREFIX="/home/the_user/.wine" wine C:\\windows\\command\\start.exe
/Unix /home/the_user/.wine/dosdevices/c:/users/Public/Startmen/Programme/DVD\
Shrink/DVD\ Shrink\ 3.2.lnk

Look at the part: c:/users/Public/Startmen/Programme/

The correct entry should have been: c:/users/Public/Startmenü/Programme/

Wine is neglecting the "ü" character, thus no menu entry works.

The folder at the given path was correctly created by wine with the name:
Startmenü

Manually editing the above entry line does not work.


P.S.:
I need to use the said user locale as some of my programs (esp. my homebanking
app) do not support UTF8 encoding.
