bug#36098: 26.1; Incorrect epg--decode-percent-escape

[Christophe TROESTLER]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 258 bytes --]


The code

(decode-coding-string
 (epg--decode-percent-escape "D%C3%A9partement")
 'utf-8)

should return "Département" but does not because the decoding of the percent string is done with multibyte.

The attached patch fixes this.

Best,
C.

Isn't the problem inside epg--decode-percent-escape?  I think it
should be fixed there, it shouldn't produce a multibyte string.

Thanks.

But you also moved decode-coding-string into that function; is that
correct?  Are we sure the original string was necessarily encoded in
UTF-8?

What I mean was only to let that function return a unibyte string, and
let the caller perform coding conversions.

Thanks.

This is because this is an internal function and is always called with the same conversion.

I can do that.  To avoid repetitions, what about introducing epg--decode-percent-escape-as-utf-8?

I think that would be fine, yes.

Thanks.
