Message #5 received at submit@bugs.x2go.org (full text, mbox, reply):
Package: x2goclient
Version: 4.1.2.2
Passwords with accents are rejected by x2goclient while working fine directly with ssh.
Client OS Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS with libssh 0.9.3-2ubuntu2.1
Server OS Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS
According to the documentation of ssh_userauth_password(), passwords should be passed as UTF-8. But
sshmasterconnection.cpp passes auth_password.toLatin1(). I think just changing to
auth_password.toUtf8() should suffice.
Same thing goes for ssh_userauth_kbdint_setanswer() and maybe other calls.
