User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; ja; rv:1.9.0.6)

pdftk cannot open files with non-ASCII characters in the file name.
Seems to happen both in multibyte and single byte locales.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
mike@kawasemi:/tmp/ttt$ pdftk ä.pdf ü.pdf cat output combined.pdf
Error: Failed to open PDF file:
ä.pdf
Error: Failed to open PDF file:
ü.pdf
Errors encountered. No output created.
Done. Input errors, so no output created.
mike@kawasemi:/tmp/ttt$

Now move the input files to files with ASCII file names and try again:

mike@kawasemi:/tmp/ttt$ mv ä.pdf a.pdf
mike@kawasemi:/tmp/ttt$ mv ü.pdf u.pdf
mike@kawasemi:/tmp/ttt$ pdftk a.pdf u.pdf cat output combined.pdf
mike@kawasemi:/tmp/ttt$

Now it works!

My locale is ja_JP.UTF-8 but this problem even happens in single
byte locales like de_DE@euro.

mike@kawasemi:/tmp/ttt$ locale
LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="ja_JP.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="ja_JP.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="ja_JP.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="ja_JP.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="ja_JP.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="ja_JP.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="ja_JP.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="ja_JP.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="ja_JP.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="ja_JP.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="ja_JP.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="ja_JP.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
