Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: coreutils
dd (coreutils 5.93-5) segfaults after copying more than one byte if not
using the "C" locale:
$ LC_ALL=C dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1024 count=16
16+0 records in
16+0 records out
16384 bytes (16 kB) copied, 3.5e-05 seconds, 468 MB/s
$ LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1024 count=16
16+0 records in
16+0 records out
Segmentation fault
It might have something to do with UTF-8
It seems to do the job before it segfaults, though
** Affects: coreutils (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
