Package: libct3 Version: 0.63-2 Severity: grave Tags: l10n Justification: renders package unusable
If the system locale is not set to "C", libct3 ignores the settings in /etc/freetds/locale.conf. Respectively date and time values are returned in a non standard way, compared to freetds installations on other systems. This breaks a lot of installations which depend on a certain datetime format, which in freetds is dependent on the language settings in the connection. This problem is due to some debian patches to the original sources. Could you please change these patches in a way, that the whole locale thing behaves like this: - First check if there are settings in /etc/freetds/locale.conf -> if there are use these settings -> if there are no settings take the systems locale Like this, backward compatibility to applications developed on debian is granted AND applications which were developed using other distributions would work as well. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-1-k7-smp Locale: LANG=de_CH, LC_CTYPE=de_CH (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages libct3 depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries libct3 recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
