Hi,
Just a heads up I am getting a lot of warnings and also an error (in new
glib) for packages using meson:
---------------------------
Warning: You are using 'ANSI_X3.4-1968' which is not a Unicode-compatible
locale.
You might see errors if you use UTF-8 strings as filenames, as strings, or
as file contents.
Please switch to a UTF-8 locale for your platform.
---------------------------
The reason is that LC_ALL is set to "C" in envars.conf (the default). This
takes precedence to LANG, which is likely to be set to an UTF-8 locale
when sourcing /etc/profile later. I am not sure what to do:
- remove LC_ALL setting, and expect LANG setting from
/etc/profile.d/i18n.sh is UTF-8 and does not break the builds
- set LC_ALL to en_US.UTF-8
- create a C.UTF-8 locale (as at least debian does), and use that.
Right now, I have just commented out the LC_ALL setting in envars.conf,
and let the system use fr_FR.UTF-8 from i18n.sh. But I expect any package
expecting the locale to be English to be broken...
For building, I would think that not using LC_ALL would be the easiest. I
have not been using jhalfs for BLFS and do not have LC_ALL set (LANG is
en_US.utf8). I do not have the warnings you mention.
