I have a problem with sort. When I set my system to the locale en_US.utf8, sort works correctly. But if I set it to de_DE.utf8, sort fails with this error every time:

sort: sort.c:1306: inittables_mb: Zusicherung `mblength != (size_t)-1 && mblength != (size_t)-2' nicht erfüllt.

It happened immediately after upgrading to coreutils-8.4. I upgraded packages one at a time until I encountered the problem, and it's definitely coreutils' fault.

emerge --info:

Comment 5 Carlos Konstanski 2010-04-17 16:08:05 UTC
I suppose I should clarify my locale settings:

#LANG=german
#LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8
#LC_MESSAGES=de_DE.utf8
#LC_PAPER=de_DE.utf8
#GDM_LANG=de_DE.utf8

LANG=en_US.utf8
LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8
LC_MESSAGES=en_US.utf8
LC_PAPER=en_US.utf8
GDM_LANG=en_US.utf8
Comment 6 Carlos Konstanski 2010-04-17 16:37:37 UTC
While on the subject of localization issues in coreutils: ls has been problematic for a long time now when using de_DE.utf8. Every invocation of ls produces this message:

ls: Fehler beim Initialisieren der Monats-Zeichenketten

And Mär never prints correctly; it always renders as M r.

The problem still exists in 8.4.

Comment 11 Benny Pedersen 2010-05-22 19:31:53 UTC
its already stable masked :(

8.4 stable on most arch
8.5 still unstable

i have runtime blocks on this so cant get portage to update for me here

wish portage could have a debian mode, if just one arch is unstable the whole package cant be updated, better safe then sorry imho
