** Description changed: + [Impact] + + It's impossible to build gdebi from source with the locale other + than en_US in Trusty. + + It had been fixed in gdebi 0.9.5.5, which is available in newer + releases, starting from Vivid. The backported fix can be applied + in Trusty. + + The debdiff which is attached to this report contains the fix. + + [Test Case] + + Steps to reproduce: + + 1. Have some non-en_US locale currently set in your system. + I have ru_RU for example. + 2. sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev devscripts build-essential + 3. sudo apt-get build-dep gdebi + 4. apt-get source gdebi + 5. cd gdebi-0.9.5.3ubuntu2 + 6. debuild -us -uc + + The build process will fail as shown in the first log attached + to this report. + + [Regression Potential] + + The patch only affects a test which is launched during the build, + it doesn't affect runtime at all. The test is passed successfully + with the patch. All the tests are independent from each other, so + the patch can't introduce any regressions to other tests. + + [Original Description] + System: Xubuntu 14.04. Current gdebi version: 0.9.5.3ubuntu2 (from trusty-updates). Steps to reproduce: 1. Have some non-en_US locale currently set in your system. I have ru_RU for example. 2. sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev devscripts build-essential 3. sudo apt-get build-dep gdebi 4. apt-get source gdebi 5. cd gdebi-0.9.5.3ubuntu2 6. debuild -us -uc The build process will fail as shown in the first attachment. Now try the same with locale set to en_US (but do a cleanup first): 7. debuild clean 8. LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 debuild -us -uc The build process will succeed as shown in the second attachment.
