Follow-up Comment #8, bug #58165 (project groff):
1) My sentence can be interpreted in two ways,
more clearly:
I added the line
unset LESSCHARSET
to the script, as nroff checked for that case.
my environment has the variable defined with
LESSCHARSET=latin1
2) Add the line
export GROFF_TYPESETTER=ascii
to override a possible default value.
2) The test script contains the line
export LC_ALL=C
so a natural test is to check, how that affects the working of the
"nroff" script, in this case of "locale charmap".
The available locales on my computer are:
locale -a
C
C.UTF-8
icelandic
is_IS
is_IS.iso88591
is_IS.utf8
POSIX
I think the C locale is standard in GNU systems and thus always
available.
git version 2.25.1 (Debian testing)
The "nroff.sh" and "nroff.am" scripts have not been changed by me,
but I create a "test-nroff" from them with a "test-nroff.am" file, which
is based on the "nroff.am" file.
