[voikko-devel] Core dump in Malaga 7.6

[Hannu Väisänen]

Malaga version 7.6 dumps core if input to malaga is encoded in
ISO-8859-15. Of course it should not work because Malaga uses UTF-8
but is it possible to give an error message instead of a core dump?

Debugger says that the core dump comes from GLib's function
g_unichar_to_utf8 ().
