Interesting! I tried the above locale settings with schroot 1.0.5 on my sid system (with the appropriate locales generated), and I get: % locale LANG=C LANGUAGE=en_GB:en_US:en LC_CTYPE=C LC_NUMERIC=C LC_TIME=en_DK.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=C LC_MONETARY=C LC_MESSAGES=C LC_PAPER=C LC_NAME=C LC_ADDRESS=C LC_TELEPHONE=C LC_MEASUREMENT=C LC_IDENTIFICATION=C LC_ALL= % schroot -V E: locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid % LC_ALL=C schroot -V | head -n 1 schroot (Debian sbuild) 1.0.5 (27 Jan 2007) % LC_TIME=en_GB.UTF-8 schroot -V | head -n 1 E: locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid % LC_TIME=en_GB schroot -V | head -n 1 E: locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid % LC_TIME= schroot -V | head -n 1 schroot (Debian sbuild) 1.0.5 (27 Jan 2007) % LC_TIME=C schroot -V | head -n 1 schroot (Debian sbuild) 1.0.5 (27 Jan 2007) It looks like the locale system is not functioning properly. I can even reproduce it with my locale setup: % export | egrep '(LANG|LC_)' LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_GB:en_US:en % locale LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_GB:en_US:en LC_CTYPE="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_ALL= % schroot -V | head -n 1 E: locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid % LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" schroot -V | head -n 1 E: locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid % LANG="" schroot -V | head -n 1 schroot (Debian sbuild) 1.0.5 (27 Jan 2007) % LANG="C" schroot -V | head -n 1 schroot (Debian sbuild) 1.0.5 (27 Jan 2007) Note that the version in unstable does still work, since it copes with the failure. But it won't fix the root cause: this isn't a bug within the schroot program; it's an issue with the system locales (or possibly in libc/libstdc++). I'm reassigning to the locales package where a similar bug (#429882) has already been filed. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
