Hash: SHA1
I just found the same problem on several of my sarge
systems. Eventually discovered that the output of `ls -l` depends on
your locale (see the ls info page). In particular, with LANG=en_us,
you get
- -rwxr-xr-x 1 ron ron 16139 2003-05-29 16:28 changetrack*
With LANG unset,
- -rwxr-xr-x 1 ron ron 16139 May 29 16:28 changetrack*
Unfortunately, this means that the filename is on field 7 in the
first instance, field 8 in the second, meaning that whether line 162
of the changetrack program gets a real filename or not depends on the
locale.
There are probably lots of ways to fix this one. I found that by
setting the 'time-style' option in the ls invocation seemed to
work. Patch below.
