Bug#836377: reproducible-builds: Locale C.UTF-8 not inherited by build terminal
Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: normal
The package ‘dput’ explicitly sets the ‘LC_ALL’ environment variable
to “C.UTF-8”, and exports that value to sub-processes
https://sources.debian.net/src/dput/0.10.1/debian/rules/>.
Yet the latest reproducible-build attempt reports failure
https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/dput.html>.
Specifically, the build system does not detect a UTF-8 locale:
=
Traceback (most recent call last):
[…]
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u2009' in position
186: ordinal not in range(128)
E: pybuild pybuild:276: test: plugin distutils failed with: exit code=1:
python2.7 setup.py test
dh_auto_test: pybuild --test -i python{version} -p 2.7 returned exit code 13
debian/rules:24: recipe for target 'build' failed
make: *** [build] Error 25
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2
=
This happens only on the reproducible build server; when running on a
system that actually has a UTF-8 terminal locale, the build succeeds.

Correction, it happens also on the regular buildd https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=dput>.

This started to happen the 2016-08-27 with 0.10; the 2016-08-26 the
version 0.9.6.4 build happily succeeded (both in unstable/i386).
I'm not aware of any change of any sort in our infrastructure that day.

I kinda of leen toward some kind of regression in dput itself, not sure
what (and haven't digged deeper).

In the first build we export LANG=C, I wonder if that messes with
python's encoding foo.

It is triggered by a change in the build system; earlier, it produced only ASCII output. So the problem may have existed prior to 0.10 but not been exposed. > In the first build we export LANG=C, I wonder if that messes with > python's encoding foo. It could. Should that not be changed to ‘LANG=C.UTF-8’, since there does not seem any good reason to avoid a Unicode locale? -- \ “We are no more free to believe whatever we want about God than | `\ we are free to adopt unjustified beliefs about science or | _o__) history […].” —Sam Harris, _The End of Faith_, 2004 | Ben Finney signature.asc Description: PGP signature
