Description ¶
From Alexander Patrakov:
recently I tried to run LSB testsuite (li18nux2k-level1 part) and there were test failures related to cpio (it corrupts filenames containing national characters). Investigation shows that the lib/system.h in cpio source #defines setlocale to nothing if the HAVE_SETLOCALE macro isn't defined. And it isn't (there is a bug in the configure script).
To work around this problem, please adjust the instructions in the book. Please insert the following command just before "make":
echo '#define HAVE_SETLOCALE 1' >>config.h
This would resolve cpio-related failures in the LSB testsuite.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Added instruction to put HAVE_SETLOCALE in config.h. Also added paragraph for make check.
