Package: bsdmainutils Version: 6.1.2 Followup-For: Bug #264996 It looks like the wordlists are sorted according to the collation for the corresponding locale. To use "-b" with look(1) would require to know the locale for each wordlist to determine the correct sort settings.

A possible solution could be to warn about using "-b" without a file argument -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.14 Locale: LANG=nb_NO.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=nb_NO.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages bsdmainutils depends on: ii bsdutils 1:2.12p-8 Basic utilities from 4.4BSD-Lite ii debianutils 2.15.1 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.3.5-8.1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libncurses5 5.5-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand bsdmainutils recommends no packages. -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
