trac-admin does not convert national characters to utf-8 and back

[anonymous]

all characters entered from keyboard (for example 'component add "national-characters-here") go to the database without converting to utf-8.
so in web interface they are shown incorrectly.

Don't close as anonymous or without a comment.

With Red Hat 9 and Fedora Core 1/2/3 all entered text is in utf-8 unless you change the default setup. Shouldn't this be checked before converting from and to utf-8? With FC3 I have only a small problem with trac-admin while erasing multibyte characters with backspace, but this is going to be fixed soon I hope :)

This incident is probably tied to #2394.

(sorry for the new status instead of reopened, clearing out the owner seems to reset the status)

This has been fixed by r3114. See also #2186.
