I'm building with LFS as at 25th April.  My previous build was in

FAIL: man-missing-locales

and src/tests/test-suite.log has:

FAIL: man-missing-locales
=========================

col: failed on line 319: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character

'/^[[:space:]]*$/{ N; /^[[:space:]]*\n[[:space:]]*$/D; }'
   FAIL: missing locales
FAIL man-missing-locales (exit status: 1)

Given that things have changed since my previous build, is anyone
else seeing this ?  I suspect the error might be "mine, all mine",
so I'm reluctant to add to the noise by reporting iti upstream
unless it really is common.  Looking at my glibc log I did
apparently install the en_US.UTF-8 locale.

Hi Ken,

I got that failure on my last build too (SVN-20200501):

renodr [ /mnt/lfs/jhalfs/test-logs ]$ grep FAIL 137-man-db-2.9.1
FAIL: man-missing-locales

From what I gather, I have the same problem. My guess is that it's a bug in the test suite, but I'm not sure on that. I do use the en_US locale as my primary. I normally do a jhalfs build after Bruce does an update to LFS to verify that packages such as meson don't break systemd like they did in the past.

Looking back on it - I have this failure with man-db-2.9.0 as well, on my build on 20200201! I didn't review the test suite logs on that one :(
