Ticket #2248 (closed defect: fixed)
Upon creation of a new file, the translation is not set in mcedit (=> input = unprintable chars)

Forwarded from Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=586903
If I create new file with Shift+F4 and start to type text in it, mcedit will show dots instead of letters. I didn't change any preferences since previous version in Squeeze. In the previuos version it worked fine.
"Previous" here refers to 4.7.0. Reproducible on 4.7.0.6 and 4.7.3. Upon setting the translation with Alt+e to "no translation" everything starts working fine.
Should be a trivial fix for an uninitialized variable or something like that.
Thanks!

I meant the current master of course. I have completely UTF-8 system. I am gonna test on a Redhat system right now, to make sure it's not a Debian specific issue.
It's well known that you can hardly reproduce such issues because of your single-byte setup.

I can test user account with UTF-8 locale for such cases.

Still you were not able to reproduce things in the past, right? I can reproduce it on RHEL 5 / mc 4.7.0.6 / ncurses (Debian uses SLang).
Any thoughts?

Ilia: I've just tested latest master. It's broken at the moment.

Replying to zaytsev:
4.7.3 is not released yet. Personally me cannot reproduce that in KOI8-R and UTF-8 locale on current master.
