On my system, a vanilla build of texinfo 6.3 frequently outputs a message: sh: 1: locale: not found Couldn't set UTF-8 character type in locale.
In turn, this causes a dozen "make check" tests to FAIL. The problem is one chunk of code that badly wants to find and change to a locale with the wanted character set. This is futile on my system as I am running uClibc with locales compiled out. There is no locale utility and setlocale() is a constant function. Oddly nothing seems to actually need to modify the locale. If I simply insert a "return 0;" in "xspara.c" to prevent the message, all "make check" tests succeed. This actually started with texinfo-6.1. ---- Michael Deutschmann <[email protected]>
