Re: [BackupPC-users] smbclient tar problem with umlauts

[Oliver F. <Oli...@io...>]

I've found a way to fix this in samba 4.2.10,
the smbclient tar errors "can't convert filename ... to UTF-8" happen 
only if smbclient runs in a non-UTF8 locale, like the C locale.

I have LANG=en_US.UTF-8 in my shell, and smbclient works with umlauts in 
filenames. If I set LANG=C, it fails.

It seems this has to do with smbclient now using libarchive (since 4.2 
IMHO) to write a tar archive, the errors occur inside libarchive.

So after setting LANG=en_US.UTF-8 in /etc/init.d/backuppc startup 
script, it worked ok.

Well, I had to patch Smb.pm like someone else has described here...

Best regards,
