[bug #39900] unar: Uncaught exception NSCharacterConversionException, reason: Can't get cString from Unicode string.

[Eric Wasylishen]

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #39900 (project gnustep):

Hey Daimonion,
Are you running a recent svn build of gnustep-back?
This change I made could potentially mess up character encoding related
things:

"r37002 | ericwa | 2013-08-21 16:30:15 -0600 (Wed, 21 Aug 2013) | 8 lines

* Source/x11/XIMInputServer.m: Add the setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "") call
back that I removed last year (r35152).

I tested the fcitx input method, and without the setlocale call,
XOpenIM would fail. I'm not sure what the best plan is in the long
term, I wanted to avoid calling setlocale from the core frameworks
but in this case xlib seems to require it."

But if unar is a command line tool, that code probably isn't even running.

Btw, I couldn't figure out an easy way to build unar under GNUstep. Could you
post a tgz of your source or a GNUmakefile please?
