[request-tracker-maintainers] Bug#416474: request-tracker3.6: double-UTF8-encoding in the web interface

[Niko Tyni]

Package: request-tracker3.6
Version: 3.6.1-4
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream patch

Hi,

while investigating #416097 / #387104 (UTF8 problems with SpeedyCGI),
I noticed a small encoding problem with mod_perl too.

When viewing text/plain content behind the 'Download' link in the
ticket view, non-ascii characters are double-UTF8-encoded.

This comes from html/Ticket/Attachment/dhandler calling 
$AttachmentObj->OriginalContent(). 

The bug is not present in 3.4.5. I believe the attached patch reverts this
regression from 3.4. I'll forward it upstream after some more testing.

(I suspect even attempting decode_utf8() on the next line is wrong
and will always fail, but this is the minimal fix.)

Cheers,
