Package: localepurge Version: 0.6.1 Severity: grave Hi.
Since the installation of bash-4.1 on my system, localepurge does not work any more: ,---- | XXXX:/root # bash --version | GNU bash, version 4.1.0(1)-release (i486-pc-linux-gnu) | Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc. | License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html> | | This is free software; you are free to change and redistribute it. | There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. | | XXXX:/root # localepurge -d | + '[' -d = --help ']' | + '[' -d = -h ']' | + (( true = 1 )) | + (( false = 0 )) | | XXXX:/root # `---- On another system, which has not yet been upgraded to bash-4.1, localepurge works as intended: ,---- | r...@yyyy:~# bash --version | GNU bash, version 4.0.33(1)-release (i486-pc-linux-gnu) | Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc. | License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html> | | This is free software; you are free to change and redistribute it. | There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. | r...@yyyy:~# localepurge -d | + '[' -d = --help ']' | + '[' -d = -h ']' | + (( true = 1 )) | + (( false = 0 )) | + (( VERBOSE = false )) | + (( DONTBOTHERNEWLOCALE = false )) | + (( SHOWFREEDSPACE = false )) | + (( MANDELETE = false )) | + (( globaltot = 0 )) | + fgrep --quiet --line-regexp DONTBOTHERNEWLOCALE /etc/locale.nopurge | + (( DONTBOTHERNEWLOCALE = true )) | + fgrep --quiet --line-regexp SHOWFREEDSPACE /etc/locale.nopurge | + (( SHOWFREEDSPACE = true )) | + fgrep --quiet --line-regexp MANDELETE /etc/locale.nopurge | + (( MANDELETE = true )) | + fgrep --quiet --line-regexp VERBOSE /etc/locale.nopurge | + '[' -d = -verbose ']' | + '[' -d = -v ']' | [.... and so on ....] `---- Reverting the first system back to bash-4.0 (from testing) resolves the problem, localepurge works again: ,---- | XXXX:/root # bash --version | GNU bash, version 4.0.33(1)-release (i486-pc-linux-gnu) | Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc. | License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html> | | This is free software; you are free to change and redistribute it. | There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. | | XXXX:/root # localepurge -d | + '[' -d = --help ']' | + '[' -d = -h ']' | + (( true = 1 )) | + (( false = 0 )) | + (( VERBOSE = false )) | + (( DONTBOTHERNEWLOCALE = false )) | + (( SHOWFREEDSPACE = false )) | + (( MANDELETE = false )) | + (( globaltot = 0 )) | + fgrep --quiet --line-regexp DONTBOTHERNEWLOCALE /etc/locale.nopurge | + (( DONTBOTHERNEWLOCALE = true )) | + fgrep --quiet --line-regexp SHOWFREEDSPACE /etc/locale.nopurge | + (( SHOWFREEDSPACE = true )) | + fgrep --quiet --line-regexp MANDELETE /etc/locale.nopurge | + (( MANDELETE = true )) | + fgrep --quiet --line-regexp VERBOSE /etc/locale.nopurge | + '[' -d = -verbose ']' | + '[' -d = -v ']' | + '[' '' = -verbose ']' | + '[' '' = -v ']' | [.... and so on ....] `---- Justification for the severity: The bug "makes the package in question unusable by most or all users". I am not sure, if this is a genuine localepurge bug or a bug in bash-4.1, but since localepurge is the only package which has been broken on my system, I am filing the bug against localepurge and not bash.
