My locale is de_DE, as you can see below. In additional I set
G_FILENAME_ENCODING=@locale to fix gtk applications. So my locale and
the locale of my filesystem is ISO-8859-1.

But when I try to play a file with a valid latin1 character like german
umlauts the file is not played. In any case (start the playback from
commandline or start it via graphical frontend) the file is displayed
correct but clementine tries to access the file to play using UTF-8
which is not correct. Funny is that the display also display the mp3
tags correct so the file handling is not always broken.

Hi Klaus! As reported in [0], a fix seems available, although it needs some
testing. As you filled the bug, maybe you are in the position of helping.

Hello Lisandro,

I'll try.

But first, I am not common with cmake. The player is not to build with
the common three sentences and there is no README that tells how to
build.

However, there are several cmake files lying around in the cmake
directory. But I do not know which to use.

Can you give me info how to compile clementine?

Regards
   Klaus

Ps. In directory 3rdparty is some stuff that has wrong file ending
    (Windows fileendings CRLF and not common LF).

Allow me to be a little bit too verbose:

tar -xf clementine_tarball.tar.gz/bz2
cd clementine-xxx
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
make

That's not a problem at all. Clementine is a multi-platform music player
and many people may be using Windows-based editors.

Kinds regards, Lisandro.

In bookworm, ancient locales are no longer supported, thus this bug stopped
being relevant.
