I'm pretty sure it's because of broken locales at the system level. It was working fine, and I haven't done any substantial changes to the system except for occasional "yum update", so I'm unaware of what went wong :( The issue looks like this: # locale -a | grep en_US en_US en_US.iso88591 en_US.iso885915 en_US.utf8 # locale en_US locale: unknown name "en_US" The only reasons I can think of is that some of the updates required a reboot, and I haven't done that because that would kill all the VMs running on that HW, including the one with CLOBBER_CACHE_RECURSIVE tests. And that'd throw away tests running for ~3 months. I've disabled the three animals (magpie, fulmar, treepie) for now, because there's no point in running the tests until the locale issues are fixed. If anyone has an idea of what might be wrong, let me know. Tomas
