Package: mgdiff
Version: 1.0-28
Severity: important
rmgdiff/rmgdiff.awk scripts can't parse localized output of the 'diff'
utility, i.e. in cases when the LC_MESSAGES part of locale settings differs
from "C" or English. The fix is a pretty simple though:
--- /usr/bin/rmgdiff 2005-10-26 01:12:05.000000000 +0400
+++ /tmp/rmgdiff 2006-09-13 18:05:48.000000000 +0400
@@ -172,7 +172,7 @@
exit 1

-exec diff -rq "$1" "$2" | awk -v debug="$DEBUG" \
+LC_MESSAGES=C exec diff -rq "$1" "$2" | awk -v debug="$DEBUG" \
-v dir1="$1" \
-v dir2="$2" \
-v rmgdiff_gui="$RMGDIFF_GUI" \
That should not have any side effects, because there are no localized
programs in mgdiff package (and rmgdiff does not work without changing
locale anyway).
Best regards,
Andrey
