Always get this error when I run my applications on Linux.

pango-WARNING **: Invalid UTF-8 string passed to
pango_layout_set_text()

What does it mean?

GTK2? It means that you did not UTF8Encode before passing a String to
the Interface (in TextOut etc).

This is a know issue (by me, don't know if it is in mantis yet). Some
component generates this in gtk2. Didn't spend time to find it yet.

It is possible to force the encoding when running the rebuild of
Lazarus?

encoding is not embedded in lazarus itself, so makes no sense to force
encoding during compilation

Well,

no solution for this problem?
