I believe it's subversion that is doing something wrong. In my copy of the file, I get # Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] # Revision: $Revision: 4152 $ # Date: $Date: 2005-12-08 00:46:30 +0100 (Do, 08 Dez 2005) $ which isn't any better, but happens to be ASCII (the only non-ASCII dates that I may get are during March - März). IMO, it's a flaw in subversion that it translates the date (or even provides a textual form of the date in the first place). It shouldn't do that, or at least provide a way to get the date expanded according to the "C" locale. As a work-around, you can update your sources with LANG=C svn up which will prevent Date from being translated to your language. Regards, Martin P.S. Notice that subversion also prints the time in local time, rather than UTC, so our copies even disagree on the day-of-month on which this revision was committed. So the proper command line would be LANG=C TZ=GMT svn up _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
