Re: PSPP 0.8.4

Hi Johannes,

perhaps you could try switching to the C locale and see if the problem goes 
away.

     Hi all,
     
     I can confirm this issue: same platform (Ubuntu 14.04, amd64), same PSPP
     version (0.8.4 from Adam's PPA), the very same errors - no matter what
     .sav file I try to open.
     A wild guess: could it be related to the system's locale as I'm using a
     German one, too?
