I'm still pissed about the LSB tests mandating multibyte support when POSIX requires multibyte support only if you claim support for multibyte locales. (I.e., we should be able to avoid this problem by saying that we're not supporting multibyte locales for LSB purposes in sarge.) Last I heard someone was supposed to issue a clarification on that issue.
Ah, I found a copy of it at the bottom of http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=206210 I guess that means we don't need to worry about coreutils and diffutils for lsb 1.3 compliance? As far as users go, yeah, they're going to have some problems with multibyte characters. I don't have a solution to that. Mike Stone
