Package: xinput Version: 1.6.1-1 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
Even with LANG=C and LC_ALL=C which mandates 7-bit terminal, the xinput command emits 8-bit characters. Example: # LC_ALL=C LANG=C xinput | od -c | head 0000000 342 216 241 V i r t u a l c o r e 0000020 p o i n t e r 0000040 \t i d = 0000060 2 \t [ m a s t e r p o i n t e 0000100 r ( 3 ) ] \n 342 216 234 342 206 0000120 263 V i r t u a l c o r e X 0000140 T E S T p o i n t e r 0000160 \t i d = 4 \t 0000200 [ s l a v e p o i n t e r 0000220 ( 2 ) ] \n 342 216 234 342 206 263 According to the specification of the "C" locate, these characters (for example the first Unicode Character 'LEFT SQUARE BRACKET UPPER CORNER') should be replaced with something appropriate for the LANG=C environment. In addition to that, all software should support the LANG=C environment.
