It had been fixed in gdebi 0.9.5.5, which is available in newer releases, starting from Vivid. The backported fix can be applied in Trusty. The debdiff which is attached to this report contains the fix. [Test Case] Steps to reproduce: 1. Have some non-en_US locale currently set in your system. I have ru_RU for example. 2. sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev devscripts build-essential 3. sudo apt-get build-dep gdebi 4. apt-get source gdebi 5. cd gdebi-0.9.5.3ubuntu2 6. debuild -us -uc The build process will fail as shown in the first log attached to this report. [Regression Potential] The patch only affects a test which is launched during the build, it doesn't affect runtime at all. The test is passed successfully with the patch. All the tests are independent from each other, so the patch can't introduce any regressions to other tests. [Original Description] System: Xubuntu 14.04. Current gdebi version: 0.9.5.3ubuntu2 (from trusty-updates). Steps to reproduce: 1. Have some non-en_US locale currently set in your system. I have ru_RU for example. 2. sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev devscripts build-essential 3. sudo apt-get build-dep gdebi 4. apt-get source gdebi 5. cd gdebi-0.9.5.3ubuntu2 6. debuild -us -uc The build process will fail as shown in the first attachment. Now try the same with locale set to en_US (but do a cleanup first): 7. debuild clean 8. LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 debuild -us -uc The build process will succeed as shown in the second attachment.
