Bug #5441
closedCannot open and save .img files with german umlauts in path name
0%
Description
If I would open a .img file, located in a path containing german umlauts (e.g. "Funkgeräte"), nothing happens.
Also "Save As" is not possible, when german umlauts are in the path name. For this I get a "File Access Error" message.
Navigation to umlaut path is possible, also the selection of the file in the dialog windows (in both cases for opening and saving a file).
If the file name contains an umlaut, opening is not possible, too. However, saving is possible, but not with the expected output in filesystem. I expect the name "Funkgerät.img", but "Funkgerät.img" is what I am getting.
My current workaround is to avoid using german umlauts.
I have tested this behavior with "CHIRP daily-20171204".

Yes, this is a known issue with Python. Sorry.
