-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------
 Herewith I renew #3177, since it was marked as duplicate of a bug #1645
 which seemed to be the same, but actually wasn't in detail. The following
 problem is still present in 2.2.0 (which #1645 was declared to be fixed
 for):

 I got some encoding problems with the Away messages of several czech users
 in the Buddy information popup: In the buddy list, I see the right
 information, for instance: "Uživatel je právě Dočasně pryč." (I hope you
 see the characters in UTF-8) If I retrieve the buddy information over the
 "Get info" context menu, the Away message is now: "Uživatel je právě
 DoÄŤasnÄ› pryÄŤ." (independently of what you see on your side - it's
 different, with wrong characters).
  The buddy concerned by this uses a standard ICQ client (ICQ 5 or 6). "Get
 AIM Info" returns among other: Capabilities: Send File, ICQ Direct
 Connect, ICQ RTF, ICQ Server Relay, ICQ UTF8
  My system: - OpenSuSE 10.3 RC1 - RPMs that may have influence:
  pidgin-2.2.0-3.8 libpurple-2.2.0-3.8 gtk2-2.12.0-5 gconf2-2.20.0-4 ...
 (ask for more)
