Package: mono-gmcs Version: 2.6.7-3ubuntu1 Severity: important
When compiling a program with a unicode character in a string literal, or embedding files with unicode characters as a resource, Mono does not interpret the unicode characters properly, unless the locale is set to a unicode one, e.g. en_SG.utf8 This causes issues with builds done in buildds as the locale is not set in thoes buildds, or at least not set to a unicode one. There have been several cases of Monodevelop generated Gtk+ sources containing Unicode characters in their literals that require manual patching to fix. Another issue is with Banshee's embedding of translators names/e-mails as an XML resource, resulting in misinterpretation of the string when Banshee is compiled in a non-unicode locale. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers maverick-updates APT policy: (500, 'maverick-updates'), (500, 'maverick-security'), (500, 'maverick-backports'), (500, 'maverick'), (400, 'maverick-proposed') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.37-rc2-hyper1 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_SG.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_SG.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages mono-gmcs depends on: ii libc6 2.12.1-0ubuntu9 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libmono-corlib2.0-cil 2.6.7-3ubuntu1 Mono core library (for CLI 2.0) ii libmono-system2.0-cil 2.6.7-3ubuntu1 Mono System libraries (for CLI 2.0 ii mono-runtime 2.6.7-3ubuntu1 Mono runtime Versions of packages mono-gmcs recommends: ii pkg-config 0.25-1 manage compile and link flags for mono-gmcs suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
