Thanks for reporting this. It's very useful for improving reliability. The problem appears to be here: > /bin/sh: line 15: 4053 Aborted (core dumped) ( /usr/bin/perl > -I "../tp" -I "../tp/maintain/lib/libintl-perl/lib" -I > "../tp/Texinfo/Convert/XSParagraph/lib" -I > "../tp/Texinfo/Convert/XSParagraph" -I > "../tp/maintain/lib/Unicode-EastAsianWidth/lib" -I > "../tp/maintain/lib/Text-Unidecode/lib" ../tp/texi2any --version ) > > /dev/null 2>&1 > Couldn't set UTF-8 character type in locale. > /bin/sh: line 15: 4056 Aborted (core dumped) /usr/bin/perl > -I "../tp" -I "../tp/maintain/lib/libintl-perl/lib" -I As you can see it's hit a snag because it tried to set the locale to en_US.UTF-8 but failed for some reason. We do plan on making it possible to recover from this (using alternative functions to process UTF-8 data), but I do find it strange that this locale is (apparently) not supported on your system. I see there is a test checking whether wcwidth works reasonably in UTF-8 locales... yes so maybe there is some other way to set a UTF-8 locale that we should use. Could you try running "locale -a" and see if any UTF-8 locales are listed? Gavin
