Package: singularity Version: 0.30-2 Severity: normal In this game, you can rent a warehouse and install computers there. The game then asks how many computers you want to buy. I typed in clearly valid values such as 1 or 2 but the game kept complaining: "That doesn't seem to be a valid number." Every now and then though, the value got through. (I still don't know why.)
I then installed python2.5-dbg and debugged this with gdb.
It seems to be a problem with Unicode conversions:
;; These double-semicolon comments were not originally part of gdb output.

Python is trying to convert the bytes 0xC2 0xA0 from ASCII to
Unicode, but ASCII does not allow such bytes. Those bytes are
U+00A0 encoded in UTF-8. U+00A0 is the thousands separator in
fi_FI.UTF-8.
It turns out this bug does not occur if I dpkg-reconfigure
locales and enable the en_US.UTF-8 locale. Originally, I had
only the fi_FI.UTF-8 locale installed. Clearly, the en_US.UTF-8
locale is not mandatory if the locales package allows it to be
omitted. I suppose it is okay for the singularity game to
require operating-system support for the locale that is selected
within the game; but at least it should give an error message
that says what the problem is, rather than claim the numbers
typed by the player are not valid.
