             Bug #: 33772
           Summary: UTF-8 Conversion Error
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: cupp at computer.org
    Classification: Unclassified


Attempts to launch TextPad results in a pop up error reporting: UTF-8
Conversion Error.

Result is that TextPad does not launch normally since it cannot open the stored
configuration file.  Work around -- open the folder and remove the
configuration file.  Then TextPad launches.

However, because of this error, the program cannot be registered (you are
running a "trial copy") and you must delete the configuration file each time
the application is launched.

History: I have been running TextPad (now on version 6.22) under WINE for a
long time.  Recently, through yum update WINE advanced to WINE 1.5.29 (I think
the previous version was WINE 1.5.25).  Both before and after the update,
TextPad worked.  However, with WINE 1.5.29 another application I use no longer
functioned.

I was able to roll back to WINE 1.5.2 and the other application works.  Now,
however, TextPad has this UTF-8 Conversion error.  (I can't find any other
applications that exhibit this problem.)  Possibly a newer version of WINE
would work but I don't know.
