Package: coreutils
Version: 6.10-6
Followup-For: Bug #435519
I am experience a similar problem, I think this is the same issue.
On debian, uniq thinks different utf-8 encoded korean names are
identical:
w...@thwomp:~$ cat hangul | recode utf8..html
안영관
오경완
황규진
w...@thwomp:~$ cat hangul | uniq | wc -l
1
Whereas the uniq on an old FreeBSD machine behaves as expected:
f...@xs2:~% cat hangul | uniq | wc -l
3
I expect this may have something to do with locale settings, these
are the settings I used on both machines:
w...@thwomp:~$ locale
LANG=en_GB.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=fy_NL:en_GB
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=
Thank you for your time.
