Title:
Info segfaults on open when LANG=pt-BR
Status in texinfo package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in texinfo source package in Jammy:
Triaged
Bug description:
Impact
-------
The common CLI help utility info doesn't work for systems where the language
is set to Brazilian
Test Case
--------
Open a terminal and run these 2 commands:
sudo apt install language-pack-pt
LANGUAGE=pt_BR info
The commands should complete without error. You can press q to exit
info.
What Could Go Wrong
--------------------
Other Info
----------
This is a double fix. First we fix the broken Brazilian translation.
Next we cherry pick a fix from upstream to not crash when there is an
error in the translations like this.

Original Bug Report
--------------------
When using my default locale info segfaults on open:
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".
Core was generated by `info'.
Program terminated with signal SIGABRT, Aborted.

if I do LC_ALL=C info then it opens normally. It seems the translation
string is not matching some positional parameter in the original
string, but I didn't check that far.
