Max Bowsher commented on SCM-320:
---------------------------------
Is there any reason to assume en_EN is a valid locale?
Certainly, on all the machines I've looked at, it is *not* valid.
If the intent is to disable all message translation, then LC_MESSAGES=C would
be a better choice.
Subversion 1.3 and earlier treated invalid locales as a fatal error - as such,
this problem is a critical showstopper in environments using old versions of
Subversion.
It will not surface in environments using Subversion 1.4 and later, but it is
inappropriate for Maven to require a relatively recent version like that -
especially as an unannounced regression. Due to the use of maven-scm in the
maven-release-plugin, this is likely to impact lots of people.
I would suggest that this needs a fix reasonably rapidly.

> * Note that running "svn update" from the command line works just fine.
> * I did try setting the LANG environment variable to "en" then "en_US"
> locale, but that didn't work either.
> * If I set the maven-scm-plugin version to 1.0-rc1 or 1.0-beta-4, it works
> fine.
