> Could it be because of perl-Text-Iconv package? Well, you have to install that before you can test the problem at all, but the working and non-working cases are using the same Text::IConv code. I think I just figured it out though. I had dismissed locale as not being the critical difference, but that was foolish (and I paid for it with an hour of wasted effort). My RPM installation is working because it defaults to en_US locale, and my source installation is not working because it uses C locale. If I switch to either en_US or cz_CZ locale then Text::IConv gives the expected result. I now believe that the OP's actual problem is related to this: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2009-07/msg00098.php He's probably ending up in C locale internally. If so it'll be fixed in 8.4.1. The only observation not accounted for is Robert's statement that he couldn't reproduce it in 8.4.0 --- but I think the behavior with the bug is dependent on the postmaster's starting environment, so it would be easy to fail to duplicate someone else's result. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
