Greetings all.
One of the persistent failures observed in automated testing is the
locale tests on Tru64. I have performed a manual build, and it appears
that the cause is a failure in the run_locale_utils.sh script. The
output of running both the sanity_test.sh wrapper script and the
en_US.ANSI_X3.4-1968.sh wrapper script is as follows:
./run_utils: Usage :
script -s -b <bindir> ## checking sanity
script -f -i <nlsdir> -l <locale name> ## check functionality
Looking at the script, it seems to me that the version of sh living in
/bin/sh is deficient in it's processing of the getopts command. I do
not have a solution to this problem at this time, but I hope to look
into it next week.
