I tried to import a package with a lots of content objects with accented characters (éáúíüó).Unfortunately the import dropped all these nice characters...
Any ideas?

Are you using a utf-8 ready database, such as mysql 4.1?

Do you mean it skipped those characters or did it replace it with some other characters?
Could you try to unpack the package using the tar command?
tar xvfz mypackage.ezpkg
Then look at the xml files, do they contain those characters verbatim, or are they encoded (UTF-8)?

I use postgresql-7.4.2 database whith latin2 (iso-8859-2) charset. I tried to work with utf-8 encoded database, but it gave errors in some cases. This latin2 runs well eZp3.4.1, except this package import feature.
In the untared files there are unicode characters.
The content objects fail to be correctly imported, BUT the CLASS DEFINITIONS are FINE - the imported "nice" names are keeping the accented characters (they are also unicode chars in the untared filesystem).
I recoded the untarred files (with a recode UTF-8..l2 myfile command), but after import the "nice" characters are forgotten.
