svn wants to convert file names in the repository to filename on the local disk by using the locally set LANG. This is a rather stupid idea, but that is the way it is. If you have any non-ascii chars in the file names in the repo, no svn client should check out that repo while under LANG=C. Andreas -- "Totally trivial. Famous last words."
