New issue 2233: PyPy 4.0.1 on FreeBSD 12 fails to get the correct locale https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/issues/2233/pypy-401-on-freebsd-12-fails-to-get-the
HawkOwl: On FBSD12, PyPy does not seem to read the LANG variable, or even the LC_LANG variable (which isn't proper on FBSD, but anyway). This means there's never a locale, and it falls back to the default of None -- which causes everything Unicode to explode, as the default on CPython is "US-ASCII". ``` $ LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 /opt/pypy401/bin/pypy -c "import sys; print sys.getfilesystemencoding()" ``` And: ``` [oberstet@bvr-file1 ~]$ LC_LANG=C /usr/local/bin/pypy -c "import sys; print sys.getfilesystemencoding()" None [oberstet@bvr-file1 ~]$ export LC_LANG=C [oberstet@bvr-file1 ~]$ /usr/local/bin/pypy -c "import sys; print sys.getfilesystemencoding()" None ``` ``` [oberstet@bvr-file1 ~]$ export LANG=de_DE.ISO8859-1 [oberstet@bvr-file1 ~]$ export LC_LANG=de_DE.ISO8859-1 [oberstet@bvr-file1 ~]$ /usr/local/bin/pypy -c "import sys; print sys.getfilesystemencoding()" None [oberstet@bvr-file1 ~]$ /opt/cpy2711/bin/python -c "import sys; print sys.getfilesystemencoding()" ISO8859-1 ``` ...and... ``` [oberstet@bvr-file1 ~]$ /opt/pypy401/bin/pypy -c "import sys; print sys.getfilesystemencoding()" None [oberstet@bvr-file1 ~]$ /opt/cpy2711/bin/python -c "import sys; print sys.getfilesystemencoding()" US-ASCII ``` _______________________________________________ pypy-issue mailing list pypy-issue@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-issue
