Hi, all -- ...and then David T-G said... % ... % I have a somewhat different situation, though, and so I brave being % branded as a dullard... From my perusal of the ChangeLog I do not see
Brand away; it's not so different after all. ... % % The tricky thing is that I don't have $LAND or $LC_ALL set at all: % % bash-2.05a$ % bash-2.05a$ echo $LANG % % bash-2.05a$ echo $LC_ALL % % bash-2.05a$ I neglected to check $LC_CTYPE and $LC_COLLATE, both of which were set to en_US.ISO8859-1, which certainly explains the sort order. The fix for me was to either set LANG and/or LC_ALL to POSIX or unset LC_CTYPE and/or LC_COLLATE. In either case, it will mean a change for our users, so we'll have to fall back and figure out how to best implement that, no doubt learning what each of the LC_* vars mean along the way :-) % % So yet again I don't understand why sorting should be different. % % Was there, in fact, a change in sort smarts between 4.0 and 4.1 that I Oh, yeah; there must have been, because v4.0 continued to work as it had even when I recompiled from fresh source without any funky magic. I guess I missed it in the change log after all.
