These commands work:
$ LC_ALL=C wnb
$ LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 wnb
$ LC_ALL=zh_TW wnb
However, this command causes a core dump in strcmp():
$ LC_ALL=zh_TW.UTF-8 wnb
Given that wnb is not a terribly localized program, perhaps it should
simply set LC_ALL=C ?
Ahh, Chung-chieh, you again (#238160) ;-))
Well, I think I will use the wrapper you suggested there and now again
to circumvent the problem. But for the sake of interest could you please
try to test wordnet version 3.0-7 with your locale? You might obtain this
package from snapshots.debian.net.
The reason why I'm asking is the following: At one point in time I dropped
the wrapper because I got some confirmation that the issue was solved and
thus there was no need for a wrapper (I expect you would have filed a
bug report before because you seem to be a constant WordNet user. For
wordnet package starting with version 3.0-8 I switched to tcl/tk8.5 (just
to be prepared for the future) and now you report a problem again. IMHO
this might be some evidence that the underlying problem is somewhere in
tcl/tk and we should inform the maintainers of these packages. So if you
were able to work with wnb in previous versions without any problem we
have to raise some alarm - if it would have failed all the time the problem
is inside wnb and I should inform WordNet authors instead.
Kind regards and thanks for your patience
Andreas.
