Thanks for figuring out the fix!
OK, I'll update the book. It was very time consuming to find the error and fix it because I ended up rebuilding the whole package several times. I've notified upstream of the problem and the fix. I can see why the problem was missed. In most cases the developer would already have the locale in their system. It was only in a chroot environment where locales are not installed does it show up. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
