--- Begin Message ---Greetings. The upload of gettext 0.21 for Debian unstable has made package "dasher", maintained by Samuel Thibault (in Cc), not to build anymore, as reported here by Lucas Nussbaum: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=978315 We are not sure where is exactly the problem (either "dasher" or "gettext"). In short: xgettext seems to parse and complain about UTF conformance of strings even if they are not marked for translation. Here is a minimal test case provided by Samuel: ----- Begin forwarded message ----- € cat test.c #include <wchar.h> void f(const wchar_t *str) { } void g(void) { f(L"\xABCDFF"); } € xgettext test.c xgettext: x-c.c:1666: phase5_get: Assertion `UNICODE_VALUE (c) >= 0 && UNICODE_VALUE (c) < 0x110000' failed. Samuel ----- End forwarded message ----- Thanks.
