Package: locales
Version: 2.11.2-6
Severity: critical
Tags: l10n
There's a bug in et_EE.UTF-8 locale definition causing some latin
chars to be treated as non-letters. These are at least in range
t..y inclusive, i.e. [t-y]. Like this:
$ echo $LANG
et_EE.UTF-8
$ echo s | grep '[a-z]'
s
$ echo t | grep '[a-z]'
$ _
I.e., the latin letter "t" does not match [a-z] regexp.
This is a critical issue unfortunately, because it makes various regex
failing to match, breaking random components. In the actual problem case
the issue were that many cron jobs were not running on the system for a
mysterious reason, and the problem was because cron uses a regexp to
filter invalid cronjob names, which is /^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$/.
Thanks.

Description:
cron - process scheduling daemon
Closes: 600082 600310
Changes:
cron (3.0pl1-115) unstable; urgency=high
.
* cron.c: set LC_COLLATE to 'C' in order to properly work when locales
are set that change the collation order expected by the regular
expressions used in load_database(). By setting locale we were
skipping some crontabs unexpectedly due to [a-z] not matching all the ascii
characters in some languages (such as Estonian). (Closes: #600310)
Thanks to Michael Tokarev for spotting this issue and for
Bastian Blank for pointing for the fix.
* debian/cron.init:
- Fix typo that prevented it from properly loading LC_CTYPE (Closes:
#600082)
- Force LC_COLLATE to 'C' regardless of user locale settings.
