At one time in Bourne shell and derivatives
LANG=C twm &
may have worked but because of all the other LC variables which are now
setup and which are not overriden by setting LANG=C, the work around for
the bug in twm being unable to open the fixed font for UTF-8 and other
encodings is to specify
** Description changed:
regression: the focal version of twm won't launch:
twm: unable to open fontset "-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-
normal--*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*"
- the bionic version of twm works fine, even if invoked in focal.
-
- the focal version failure had surfaced in earlier ubuntu
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
** Changed in: twm (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
