Thank you for a problem report. Please, specify the exact version of DBD::mysql, Perl and MySQL server used. Simple self-contained test case will be also useful.

DBD::mysql 3.0002, Perl 5.8.7, MySQL 5.0.19. I don't have time to make up an example demonstrating the flaw this week, but you can see for example this discussion thread: http://lists.mysql.com/perl/3774 Or this one from 2003: http://lists.mysql.org/perl/2351 Or another related post: http://www.simplicidade.org/notes/archives/2005/12/utf8_and_dbdmys.html

It is a known bug, already reported at cpan.org (see http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=17829, e.g.). Not fixed yet.

First off, this bug's severity is wrong: It's no longer a feature request as it has been implemented. However, the feature has the following bug: When fetching data from a column with collation "utf8_bin", the utf8-flag does not get set (I checked with utf8::is_utf8() ). When fetching data from columns with collation "utf8_general_ci" or "utf8_unicode_ci" the flag is set correctly. See also bug #26010 I am using DBD::mysql 4.001 with DBI 1.53 and perl 5.8.4.

This was implemented. Sven's bug is still open on rt.cpan.org.
