I though Man would work, but the same problem exists with catopen()... catopen() doesn't exist in uClibc at the moment. Anyway the NLS bug is smaller now. I tried using GNU's libiconv with bad luck. The iconv that comes with uClibc works okay but its missing some charsets, hopefully its not a big deal.
The testsuite for binutils, maybe gcc too, is better but not perfect. The locales made a noticeable improvement though. GCC and Binutils in particular are using very old versions of autoconf, and gettext.m4, and poorly support external libintl. Xorg (non-autconf stuff) might have similar issues. To resolve this I used a small gcc specs hack to add -lintl to everything, and magically everything starts to use it. GCC/Binutils believe -lintl is in libc, newer packages figure out libintl is external, either way it works out. robert -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/hlfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
