I'm not sure if this is related to the locale. After you mail I tried to reproduce it with LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8 and I'm still unable to reproduce it. The locales are working fine as I can guess from the output of various problems (well, I can't speak Russian, but it looks like it is cyrillic). Lets guess further: Do you have 'ls' defined as an alias? Probably with some options? What does alias ls on the problematic terminal in question tell?

Bug#504120: ls: columns are messed up with non-ascii filenames
Hi, I've tried to reproduce your bug but I'm unable to do so. My environment is [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I tried to reproduce it with the commands you entered. Output looks good, so everything is alright. I guess that this is probably not a problem with coreutils. Does it happen in an X-Terminal or on console as well? If the answer is that it only happens in an X-Terminal (which I assume) then the next question would be, which terminal emulator you are using. I tested it with rxvt-unicode aswell as xterm. A screenshot of the problem could be helpful as well. Best Regards, Patrick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bug#504120: ls: columns are messed up with non-ascii filenames
Package: coreutils Version: 6.10-6 Severity: important Tags: l10n 'ls' messes up the displaying of columns when displaying non-ASCII filenames (Russian, in my case, but the problem exists with accented Latin characters as well). It appears to regard non-ASCII characters as having zero width, resulting in the output going beyond the width of the screen. The bug can be easily demonstrated by executing the following commands in a directory with other files in it (assuming an xx_XX.UTF-8 or ru_RU.KOI8-R locale): sh$ touch файл_с_русским_именем.txt sh$ ls While this isn't a fatal problem, it certainly does make the output ugly and hard to read. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.27.3 (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages coreutils depends on: ii libacl1 2.2.47-2 Access control list shared library ii libc6 2.7-14 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libselinux1 2.0.65-5 SELinux shared libraries coreutils recommends no packages. coreutils suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
