Stefan Eßer <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|New |Open CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #1 from Stefan Eßer <[email protected]> --- Please check your LANG (and possibly LC_CTYPE) setting. There are many locales that do not follow the ASCII collating sequence A .. Z followed by a .. z. Very common is a sequence of: A a B b ... Z z - and that includes all lower case letters except z within the range [A-Z]. Try with LANG set to "C" whether this gives the expected result. Shell scripts that depend on a specific collating sequence should always reset LANG and LC_CTYPE to default values (e.g. LANG=C and LC_CTYPE unset). Interactive shells should be able to support LC_CTYPE=C to set the collating sequence independently of LANG, but in my tests this is implemented to different degrees in different shells. Some shells do not even respect the collating sequence specified by LANG, and bash is the one that appears to ignore both LANG and LC_CTYPE and to always use the ASCII collating sequence (or rather pure bytewise string comparison?). The tcsh in FreeBSD uses only LANG and ignores LC_CTYPE to select the collating sequence, btw. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
