But I do *not* have LC_ALL set to C or POSIX (the problem was with LC_MESSAGES). So, this will not break such code. Or perhaps it should be fixed in some other way. For instance, LC_MESSAGES should have the precedence over LANGUAGE (always, not just with set to POSI= X). > Just add appropriate settings of LC_ALL or LANG. Setting LC_ALL is unacceptable as it has the precedence over other LC_* locales. And LANG is ignored. --=20 Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=3Demail ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
