The overall difficulty here in getting this addressed is difficulty in
reproducing your environment.
For example, I think it would be awkward for me to operate with OS
locale set to Russian.
You'll see little action on it until there is an Issue logged at
pharo.fogbugz.com <http://pharo.fogbugz.com/> with a simple set of steps
to reproduced for standard environments (i.e. using English locales)
Reviewing your other posts, I'd suggest initially creating a script to
wrap Pharo startup that cleans all the environment variables to ascii
-1.
It should all work in other locales. Maybe you should set some if not
all of the jenkins jobs under different locales (at least russian and
japanese) to catch those things fast.
Your (I hate to use the word) privilege to be fine with ASCII only
actually masks lot of bugs from you.
Herby
P.S.: Other masking thing is the timezone which is UTC in case of UK,
France and lot of the rest of Western Europe. That should also be set
to. say, Sydney and Honolulu to get big GMT+ and GMT- shifts.
characters, temporarily creating required directories so at lest you can
get it started. Then extend that script to reintroduce the error, like
a single non-ascii character in a single environment variable that
causes an error. That extended part then provides a path for others to
reproduce your problem, which you would attach to the Issue. Then as
you investigate a solution yourself, ask questions about it on pharo-dev
to keep the Issue active and over time you'll likely get some action
from others on it.
