Package: guile-2.0
Version: 2.0.5+1-3
Severity: normal
Tags: patch


Hi,

find below a discussion on debian-backports list [1] about a problem
with the current guile-2.0 version in wheezy.  A link to the fixing
commit is attached.  Perhaps it is possible to include it in a point
release.

Best regards,

     Andi

The problem is in guile and decribed here:

    <URL:http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10742>

With the patch/fix:

    
<URL:http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=guile.git;a=commitdiff;h=5de0053178b4acc793ae62838175e5f3ab56c603>
This commit did not make it into wheezy.  As a workaround, set LANG
from LANG=de_DE to LANG=de_DE.UTF-8  (persistent and system wide with
dpkg-reconfigure locales).  After that things work fine.

I believe the current guile-2.0 packages now include the patch
mentioned.  Closing.

Thanks
