Sorry for taking so long to get back to this issue. On Sun, 25 Sep 2022 14:51:51 +0100 Julian Gilbey <[email protected]> wrote:
So when I run "autopkgtest-build-lxc debian testing", it creates a container with the default locale being en_GB.UTF-8 - indeed, in that container, locale gives the same output. If the container were created with the locale being C.UTF-8, then it might fare a little better, although a quick attempt to do this still seemed to end up with the default locale being en_GB.UTF-8. It is entirely possible that there is a different cause, though. Inside the container, I have: root@autopkgtest-testing:~# ls /usr/lib/locale/ C.utf8 locale-archive
In version 5.30 Simon rewrote the logic that (among others) handled the locale in the testbed. $(man autopkgtest) mentions that the default LANG is C.UTF-8 and that you can set it on the command line with --set-lang. All other LC_ variables are unset (in lib/in-testbed/wrapper.sh). I just tried (with a d/t/control that has Test-Command: env) and see that LANG is indeed set to C.UTF-8 when I don't use `--set-lang `and is set to en_US.UTF-8 when I specify that with `--set-lang`. (On my host system, LANG=en_US.UTF-8) Can you still reproduce the issue you reported?
