Package: coreutils Version: 8.32-4.1 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
LC_ALL=POSIX tr '\049-!' '0' fails with tr: range-endpoints of '9-!' are in reverse collating sequence order but POSIX.1-2008/2018 says If either or both of the range endpoints are octal sequences of the form \octal, this shall represent the range of specific coded values between the two range endpoints, inclusive. so if coreutils is /actually/ trying to generate a locale-dependent collating sequence: that's invalid (well, in the POSIX locale; it's unspecified in others) if it isn't: the error message is wrong. Similarly: the error is confusing enough as-is even when it's right (note how it presents the decoded sequence, and very helpfully describes it as "range-endpoints in reverse collating sequence order", which probably means something to someone, but it's an insane way of writing '\049 < !').
