All I can add is that the GIMP UI is unexpectedly German for me. German is the 
second language in my Language & Region preferences, after English.

French Error Messages in BBEdit from Bash 4 on Sierra

[Christopher Stone]

[While writing this up I solved the immediate problem – but failed to discover 
the why.]


Hey Folks,

Well, this is weird...

I only recently updated to Sierra and have been going through the expected 
teething period – updating ports, etc.

Yesterday I was testing a bash/perl script in BBEdit.

---
#!/usr/bin/env bash

phoneList='(123) 456-7890
(456) 567-9050';

echo "$p | perl -0777 -ne 's/(?<=78)(.*? 5)/'X' x length $1 /se; print';
---
  ˆˆ

Somehow my variable got partially eaten, so when I ran the script it naturally 
threw an error:


Jan 16, 2017, 23:08:47
untitled text

untitled text: ligne 6: fin de fichier (EOF) prématurée lors de la recherche du 
« " » correspondant
untitled text: ligne 7: erreur de syntaxe : fin de fichier prématurée


Imagine my surprise when the error message was in French — my macOS 10.12.2 
system is set to English (U.S.).

Running same script from the Terminal returns a normal U.S. English error 
message:

---

chris$ ./test
./test: line 14: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
./test: line 20: syntax error: unexpected end of file

---

Bash 4.4.5(1)-release was installed via Macports.

I have no language or locale setting options in my ~/.profile.

When I switch the shell to /bin/bash the error message in BBEdit (etc) reverts 
to English.

Switching back to Bash 4 (/opt/local/bin/bash) brings back the French error 
message.

When run from TextMate the script produces an English error message.

When run from CodeRunner it produces a French error message.

When run from Atom it produces a French error message.

I rebooted the system, and that failed to solve anything.

I uninstalled and reinstalled Bash 4 with Macports – nada.

I looked in my Language settings and French was item 2 in the preferred 
language list.

English (U.S.)
French
Hebrew

So – on the off-chance I deleted French and Hebrew, and voilà – I got back my 
English error messages in BBEdit (etc).

If someone has an insight into why this happened I'd be interested to hear it.

Can someone confirm this?

Could you describe in what way the executable is not viable?

Hey Ryan,

Thanks for the quick response.

It slipped my mind that p7zip installs 3 executables:

7z
7za
7zr

I was looking for “p7zip” and of course didn't find it.

Hi Chris,

"port contents (portname)" is handy for this kind of thing, just in case 
you hadn't already noticed it.
