Package: nautilus
Version: 2.30.1-2
Severity: important

I've got a samba share on my home server. In this folder, there are about 700
files. Some files whose name include a special character (example: italian
àèò or spanish ñ). Those file just do not appear in nautilus even
refreshing the view. To view the folder I simply browse to
smb://user@server/share/ in Nautilus. If I browse the same share with
smbclient, the special characters appear correctly as `_', for example:
Mi_vida_en_Espa_ol.txt

Fun enough, the share appears correctly under windows, with all special
characters turned into `_'.

It's worth noting that only some special chars make this effect. For example,
files with chinese and hebrew characters appears correctly.
