            Bug ID: 417918
           Summary: Unable to open djvu in paths with accented characters
           Product: okular
           Version: 19.12.2
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: DjVu backend
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: apanontin at protonmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When trying to open a djvu file in a folder with an accented character in tis
name (such as à, è, é, ì, ò, ù) okular gives an error.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a folder with such a character in its name (e.g. università, the
italian for university)
2. save a .djvu file in the folder
3. Try opening the file

OBSERVED RESULT
The first time I try opening the file I get the following error
"Could not open file:///home/andrea/Desktop/università/Spiral out/Keep
going/Profinite groups - Wilson, John S.djvu".
The second time I try opening the file I get no error dialog, but okular loads
only the first page of the file.
If I try opening the file a third time it gets open in its entirety

EXPECTED RESULT
The file should get opened (in its entirety) on the first attempt

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: linux 5.5
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.67.0
Qt Version: 5.14.1

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I'm not really sure I can share my djvu files, even though it didn't seem to
depend on the specific file I tried to open.
When filing the bug report, I chose "djvu backend" for the component because
this problem does not happen with the same files, when converted to pdf, so I
thought it was specific to the djvu component in okular.
