Betreff: [pkg-x2go-devel] Bug#715422: x2goclient: Strange
characters on terminal emulators
An: Debian Bug Tracking System <submit@bugs.debian.org>
Package: x2goclient Version: 4.0.1.0-0~x2go1+squeeze~main~380~build1 Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
When I use a terminal shell emulator (konsole, xfce-emulator, etc) on the remote (server x2go), non-ascii characters (accented characters, for instance) are not well printed.
The same thing happened when I ssh'ed to the same machine without "SendEnv LANG LC_*" in /etc/ssh/ssh_config. Adding this again solved the question.
Executing locale on server terminal emulator results in all "POSIX", except for LANG which is not set.
Best regards,

This is strictly speaking NOT an x2go bug, but the way shells work.
We can workaround this using Mike's proposal and I'd second this.
Technical details: x2go connects via SSH and runs shell scripts. Those spawned shells are non-interactive due to the fact that any of standard output or standard error are not connected to a terminal.
(man bash: "An interactive shell is one started without non-option arguments and without the -c option whose standard input and error are both connected to terminals (as determined by isatty(3)), or one started with the -i option." A non-interactive shell is therefore (-i option aside) a shell started with non-option arguments or with the -c option or whose standard input or error are not connected to terminals.)
POSIX definitions ( http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/sh.html ) do not require a shell to read any file at startup, but won't forbid it. This is simply not mentioned at all.
bash enters POSIX conformity mode when started as "sh" and will *not* read any files on startup. This is especially true for /etc/profile.
If it is spawned as "bash" in non-POSIX conformity mode, it will still *not* read /etc/profile for non-interactive shells.
