Re: new snapshot available: coreutils-9.0.193-54bec.tar.xz

Your message was unintentionally dropped from the list.
Thanks for taking the extra time to mail this directly.

Your analysis is correct, but setting LC_MESSAGES=C might not work in all cases.
We had issues previously with disparate LC_CTYPE and LC_MESSAGES on macos as 
per:
https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/commit/04148c99c
So the attached adjusts things to only look for the problematic
character in the warning.

cheers,
Pádraig

Hi Pádraig,

(Apologies if this is a duplicate - I sent it to the coreutils@ list but
it hasn't come through.)

I've just tried this and I get one failure in the new printf-mb test --
the log is below. Since LC_ALL is set to fr_FR.UTF-8, the error messages
are printed in French, and the test script is expecting them to be in
English; should it set LC_MESSAGES=C like ls/dired.sh does?

(This is on a custom GNU/Linux system with glibc 2.35 and coreutils 9.0
installed.)

Thanks,
Adam
