Package: findutils Version: 4.2.27-3 Severity: normal Tags: l10n I am not sure if it is an indented feature or a bug, but for me it looks like a real problem. The result of a search using find depends of the locale.
Let's take an example: I want to search the current directory for every file that don't end with .mp3 ___ $ LC_ALL=C find ./ \( ! -name "*.mp3" \) | wc -l 504 $ LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8 find ./ \( ! -name "*.mp3" \) | wc -l 513 ___ As we can see, the results are different For me, the behaviour is incorrect. The result of a search must be the same, whatever the locale is. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-2-686-smp Locale: LANG=fr_FR, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to fr_FR.UTF-8) Versions of packages findutils depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6-15 GNU C Library: Shared libraries findutils recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
