Unable attach files with cyrillic, japanese, chinese names

[eldarado]

Hello!

I just installed Vivaldi on Debian 10 with KDE and get problem - I can't attach any file on different web pages. Some sites say "Something went wrong" others attach file with no name and zero size.
Checked Mozilla - it works fine.

Is it a bug or some permissions problem?

Please describe the issue precisely step by step to reproduce this.

Important correction:
Unable attach files with cyrillic, japaneese, chineese names
And I believe with other non-latin names.

To reproduce this error:

1. Get any file. Rename it using any online translator to any chineese word
2. Open any web mail website and try to upload file to attach to mail

I tested 2.9.1705.41 Stable on Windows 10 at https://imap.vivaldi.net/webmail/ , uploaded by Dr&Drop and opened with Dolphin's file open dialog a file with name 汉字漢字.pl. And works same nice on Horde Webmail.
Works on Debian 10.1 with KDE5 Plasma, too.

@eldarado If you do not tell ins some steps how i can reproduce this, i can not help you.

[eldarado]

I tested some Linux distros:

• Mint Cinnamon - works fine
• Mint Xfce - works fine
• Neon KDE - FAIL
• Debian Xfce - works fine
• Debian KDE - FAIL

Also I tested Chromium browser - same results.
So I think it's some kind of incompatibility between KDE and Chromium engine.

@eldarado I told you i can not reproduce it on Debian 10.1 KDE 5 Plasma.

You should:

• tell more about your Linux and Desktop version
• describe step by step or in a screen recording how we can reproduce this

[Gwen-Dragon]

@eldarado I changed the title.

I think it's not just Vivaldi's bug. But some kind of incompatibility with KDE

[Gwen-Dragon]

Works for me to add chinese, russian or greek filename as attachment in GMail with Vivaldi on my Debian 10.1.

Look like some problem on user's Debian as i can not reproduce the issue on my KDE 5 Plasma.
But i have not a kazakh language Debian, mine has a German UI.

@eldarado Try with a test profile (without changing any settings!) for check if settings or extensions may cause this.

[Gwen-Dragon]

@eldarado Your bug is unconfirmed
VB-60048 "Unable attach files with cyrillic, japanese, chinese names on KDE based Linux"

[eldarado]

@Gwen-Dragon

It's weird thing. I tested it on a clean KDE's Neon with english-only locale and fresh Vivaldi installation - files failed to attach.
Also I tested it with clean Chromium and it failed too.
So I think it's not a Vivaldi's fault.

[Gwen-Dragon]

@eldarado Then you should ask in a Debian-KDE forum for your special issue.
