[Qgis-user] Encoding problem in QGIS 1.8

[blazej.zamojski at rdos.krakow.pl]

Hi
I'm trying a workaround for problems with non-latin characters in QGIS 
1.8 
(http://ssrebelious.blogspot.com/2012/03/qgis-and-gdal19-encoding-issue.html) 
on WinXP 32-bit, but this solution is not working. Do you know any 
other way for that? I know this is GDAL issue, but it is very important 
for QGIS users to have it repaired. Is there any chance for that? I want 
to upgrade in my institution to 1.8 but without polish letters it will 
be impossible. Maybe there is possibility to compile 1.8 with older GDAL 
version? I will appreciate any help.
