> The patch looks wrong. Can you please tell me what looks wrong?
As far as I can see it mimics the behaviour of the setlocale() call in C, where a failure also just gets ignored (e.g. in dselect/main.cc from the dpkg package). I've tested both "apt" and "dpkg" with "LANG=foo" and both do not fail, nor issue a warning. As another example, perl issues a (huge) warning, but also does not fail. I've seen this happen also during upgrade - and it would be really bad, if it would fail. Do you see a better approach to avoid this crash? > And reading the bug, it's due to a breakage of Ubuntu that loses locales. Sure. The locale setup is broken. But that is likely a temporary problem and no reason for apt-listchanges to fail.
