Hi!
While working on the “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed
that calendarserver could not be built reproducibly.
The problem is that support/version.py expects that the output from
"svnversion -n" is in English, but it may be in any language depending
on the locale of the build environment. Here is a patch that sets
LC_ALL=C for the call to svnversion to fix it.
