Re: Ghostscript fails with special characters in filename

[ian_hulin]

I've just been investigating this a bit more and have finally managed to
install ghostscript 8.70 on my system.  
If I compile a .ly file which will cause a .pdf and .ps file to have 16-bit
Unicode characters (like čača by setting output-suffix to a string
containing such characters lilypond barfs when trying to generate the .pdf
file:

-sOutputFile="./Exsultate-Allegro-�\x8da�\x8da.pdf" -c .setpdfwrite -f
"Exsultate-Allegro-�\x8da�\x8da.ps"' failed (256)
error: failed files: "Exsultate.ly"

However if I patch up the failed command line and invoke gs 8.70 from the
command line this happens:
$ gs -q -dSAFER -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=595.28 -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=841.89
-dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -r1200 -sDEVICE=pdfwrite
-sOutputFile="./Exsultate-Allegro-čača.pdf" -c .setpdfwrite -f
"Exsultate-Allegro-čača.ps"
$ 
I.e. it works.

Lilypond is still using gs V8.65 as shown by this:

So, is the failure being caused by using ghostscript V8.65 instead of V8.70,
or is Lilypond generating a command line with corrupted characters which
ghostscript then chokes on?

Is this worth a bug tracker, Valentin?

Cheers,
