doc/bugs/package_build_fails_in_non-English_environment.mdwn



basewiki_brokenlinks.t fails when running dpkg-buildpackage in non-English environment : it greps for an (non-)error message that is i18n'd. This of course does not happen when building in a proper chroot environment... which happens to fail as well, for other reasons, but this will be for another bug.
The LANG= on line 9 does not seem to do what it's supposed to, go figure.
I've never had to understand the Unix locales, so I randomly tried to replace LANG= in basewiki_brokenlinks.t with :

LANG=C : fails
LANGUAGE= : fails
LANGUAGE=C : works!


For maximum precedence it should have been LC_ALL=C. [[done]], I think... --[[smcv]]
