Package: debspawn Version: 0.4.1-1 Severity: normal Hi,
when I invoke debspawn on my systems, I get the following message: |WARNING:root:Building with unicode support, but your environment |does not seem to support unicode. This warning is wrong, my system supports unicode: |[1/6989]mh@drop:~ $ locale |LANG=de_DE.utf8 |LANGUAGE=en |LC_CTYPE="de_DE.utf8" |LC_NUMERIC=de_DE.UTF-8 |LC_TIME=de_DE.UTF-8 |LC_COLLATE=de_DE.UTF-8 |LC_MONETARY=de_DE.UTF-8 |LC_MESSAGES=en_US.utf8 |LC_PAPER="de_DE.utf8" |LC_NAME="de_DE.utf8" |LC_ADDRESS="de_DE.utf8" |LC_TELEPHONE="de_DE.utf8" |LC_MEASUREMENT=de_DE.UTF-8 |LC_IDENTIFICATION="de_DE.utf8" |LC_ALL= |[2/6990]mh@drop:~ $ locale -a |C |C.UTF-8 |de_DE.utf8 |en_GB.utf8 |en_US.utf8 |POSIX |[3/6991]mh@drop:~ $ While my settings are admittably inconsistent, they are valid. glibc "normalizes" the charset setting by lowercasing it and removing all intepunction, yielding utf8 for UTF-8. Debspawn, however, seems to insist on the upper case UTF-8 to not print the warning. I guess that this misdiagnose will also apply to some of the later locales like aa_ER which _are_ UTF-8 but dont have the suffix in their name. I am afraid debspawn needs a better heuristic. This one is flawed.
