Oops. I was hoping that since clisp was the culprit that got LANG added in the first place, this problem might just disappear since we've switched to ecl -- no such luck, I guess. Now, I'm curious about the issues R has -- do you need LANG to be set whenever you *use* R, or just when you run the spkg-install? Because if it's the former, we're back to square one with #2513 ... Another unfortunate possibility is that R isn't the only program that has an issue with this -- once you add it to the spkg-install for R, does the sage install finish without any trouble? -cc --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
