Item924: BuildContrib fails to get info from SVN in non-english environments
Priority: Normal
Current State: Closed
Released In:
Target Release: n/a
BuildContrib gets information from
svn
command in order to perform some tasks like macro expansion (e.g.
%$VERSION%
). The code assumes
svn
will print messages in English, what doesn't hold if another locale is in use (e.g
pt_BR
).
In order to use
BuildContrib I have to
export LC_ALL=C
before calling
perl build.pl release
.
BuildContrib should adjust this environment variable before calling
svn
(or any other command that is supposed to return messages in English).
