Package: apt-rdepends
Version: 1.3.0-1
When having the locale set to another language than english apt-rdepends
does not give the expected output.
A simple patch to fix the problem is attached. It might, or might not
need some work. The whole script is a hack anyway, the way I understand
it.
See for example the following two runs:
"
leka% apt-rdepends --reverse --show=Suggests,Recommends nscd
Läser paketlistor... Färdig
Bygger beroendeträd... Färdig
nscd
leka% ./patched-apt-rdepends --reverse --show=Suggests,Recommends nscd
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
nscd
Reverse Suggests: libnss-mdns (0.6-1)
Reverse Recommends: education-common (0.803)
Reverse Recommends: libnss-ldap (238-1)
"
As a side effect, the output from apt-rdepends is not localized, but I'd
rather have correct english output than no output at all.
