Package: liblocale-ruby Severity: serious Using this library (actually, setting the LC_NUMERIC part of the locale) breaks several Ruby applications because of the way Ruby (at least 1.8 version) implements printing of floating point numbers.
It also conflicts with libgettext-ruby (see #470798). So at least until we can find a solution for these problems (or decide to remove this package from Debian), this package must not go into a release. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=pt_BR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=pt_BR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages liblocale-ruby depends on: pn liblocale-ruby1.8 <none> (no description available) liblocale-ruby recommends no packages. liblocale-ruby suggests no packages. -- Antonio Terceiro <terce...@softwarelivre.org> http://people.softwarelivre.org/~terceiro/ GnuPG ID: 0F9CB28F
