From: "bkorb at gnu dot org" <sourceware-bugzilla@sourceware.org> To: glibc-bugs@sources.redhat.com Subject: [Bug libc/12054] New: too many behaviors depend upon LC_ALL Date: Fri, 24 Sep 2010 21:35:00 -0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <20100924213532.12054.bkorb@gnu.org> (raw) For years and years I've done "ls" with entries showing in ASCII order. Recently (last few years), printers started printing past the end of the page. This is a new enhancement that I don't like very well. Apparently, it comes back to glibc, "it tells us to use 290 mm page length". I've tried LC_PAPER=en_US and LC_PAPER=letter, but that does not control paper size. Only LC_ALL does. LC_ALL also controls how directories get listed. LC_ALL=en_US is totally brain damaged for "ls" and basically unusable. It is all screwed up. Please find a solution. Misordered directories and/or missing text on print outs is not a solution. -- Summary: too many behaviors depend upon LC_ALL Product: glibc Version: unspecified Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: libc AssignedTo: drepper dot fsp at gmail dot com ReportedBy: bkorb at gnu dot org CC: glibc-bugs at sources dot redhat dot com http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12054 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
