Bug#215466: fi_FI locale doesn't contain first_weekday

2003-11-28 Thread Petter Reinholdtsen

The patch for week- and workday in fi_FI was commited to upstream CVS
2003-11-26.

This problem should thus be fixed in the next release of glibc.

Can you send a gzipped copy of your entire status file?
I am not sure what (exactly) I did to fix it, but I'm no longer 
experiencing this problem. The problem was solved through some 
combination of:

* Selectively upgrading packages to match a known good system
* Installing `file`
* Unmounting /dev/shm (originally a tmpfs filesystem)
* Rebooting
For the record, I began doing selective upgrades first. After each 
upgrade, I'd re-run `apt-get update`, and in all cases the segmentation 
fault persisted.

I then played with my sources.list and discovered that only two package 
lists triggered the problem: sarge/main and security sarge/updates 
non-free. This seemed especially odd, since the security sarge/updates 
non-free package list is empty.

At one point, I noticed that the problem machine had /dev/shm mounted. 
So I unmounted it. At about the same time, I also noticed that the known 
good machine had `file` installed whereas the problem machine didn't. So 
I installed the `file` package. After that, scanning of the empty 
sarge/updates non-free package list no longer caused segmentation 
faults. However, the sarge/main package still tripped it up.

At that point, I finally became brave enough to reboot the system 
(remotely; it's on the other side of the state from me). After reboot, 
apt was able to scan the sarge/main package with no problems.

It's possible that the reboot did it, or it's possible that this machine 
has a bad piece of RAM and a reboot relocated things sufficiently. I 
really don't know.

I'm just glad that the system is working now. I'm sorry the problem 
wasn't more reproducible, but I wanted to pass on as much information as 
I could in case any of was helpful.
