All,
Can I get a couple of reviews for the fix for CR 7082668:
7082668 gui-install displays always in English
http://monaco.us.oracle.com/detail.jsf?cr=7082668
The webrev is located at:
https://cr.opensolaris.org/action/browse/caiman/johnfisc/7082668/
The fix to correct the reported issue is fairly start forward.
The code that sets up the localization is being moved from
the solaris_install/sysconfig/__init__.py file to the
/usr/sbin/sysconfig file.
During testing I discovered that the raw_input() function was
pucking. Takeshi explained that it was because raw_input()
accepts an argument string in either unicode or str. But in
our case unicode was given, thus raw_input() looks to encode
it internally (to pass it to I/O), and in that case, the system-wide
default encoding ASCII is assumed. The given string is in Spanish
and contains non-ASCI characters so the ASCII encoder cannot
handle the characters. So the fix is to get the encoding and
then encode it for the raw_input() functions. Takeshi was
hugely helpful in this part of the issue.
So I have tested the fixes with the GUI Installer and it works
there. I have tested it using sysconfig configure and when
the system changes to the configure milestone it comes up
in the correct locale.
Thanks,
John
