It sounds like you could simply patch it to use C.UTF-8 instead? Or send upstream a patch to take the locale from the environment variables. Of course then tests might fail if someone uses a weird locale and the test results depend on the locale, but then you could set the locale to C.UTF-8 in debian/rules. Or perhaps debhelper should be doing that in the next compat level. > And build-depending on that is not bad in some way? I can't think of a reason it would be problematic. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
