In the first times jhalfs was setting LANG=C (in fact, in lfs.xsl the default value for the "lang" param is still "C"), but several time ago was requested the it should defaulting to the host $LANG setting. I don't remember who or why, but $LANG is more closer to what the book expect than C. The LANG envar is used by jhalfs only to create a very simple /etc/profile file like the one discussed in http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/chapter07/profile.html We can discuss here if jhalfs should create or not such default /etc/profile, but to discuss if the LANG value set in /etc/profile should be "C" or a native locale is for lfs-dev list. -- Manuel Canales Esparcia Usuario de LFS nº2886: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org LFS en castellano: http://www.escomposlinux.org/lfs-es http://www.lfs-es.info TLDP-ES: http://es.tldp.org -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/alfs-discuss FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
