at the last second i looked at the locale-gen stuff again, the trace shows mmap() failing with EINVAL: # strace -ff -s256 -etrace=mmap localedef -i en_US -c -f ISO-8859-1 -A /usr/share/locale/locale.alias en_US ...... mmap(NULL, 536870912, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7fb3aac63000 mmap(0x7fb3aac63000, 103860, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED|MAP_FIXED, 3, 0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) cannot map archive header: Invalid argument ... i'm thinking it's probably related to 9p2000.L passthru at this point (ehm, under KVM if i didn't already mention it), but if anyone has some additional input, or better debug commands (eg. strace) that would be awesome. ldconfig does *not* fail with any errors at all, or trigger any whatsoever (other than ENOENT for missing files/etc). i might have created one of these from scratch on 9p2000.L, but i think they were all rsync'ed from existing installs on LVM partitions (as i was conviting my setup to use passthru for many benefits) ... it's possible this is the first time glibc/locale-gen has been ran since the conversion. -- C Anthony
