Yes. It cautiously avoids to make the situation any worse.

Hi,
it turns out that it might be contraproductive to set LANG=en_US.UTF-8.
If the LANG locale is not listed by
locale -a
then nl_langinfo(3) returns "ANSI_X3.4-1968".
I stumbled over this when testing LANG=de_DE.UTF8, which despite of
my location is not an available locale on my machine.
So i

I expect the same. It's not easy to test, though.
In theory it is es

Hi,
now i know that i should have asked for the test-suite.log file.
The problem turned out to be in Joliet, not in ISO 9660.
Because Joliet gets its file names and other texts encoded as UCS-2
16-bit characters it is indeed inavoidable to define the meaning of the
bytes in a Unix file name.

Not specifically. I initially only wanted to mention that there is
a xorriso alternative to setting LANG. Both ways have different
implications in detail. (LANG is global to the

Can you tell me the exact error message from xorriso ?
I have some difficult
LANG must be set to something that supports international characters,
otherwise xorriso will refuse to include the file with name having
international characters, causing the test to fail. So if LANG is not set,
set it to en_US.UTF-8, a very common UTF-8 locale. And if it is set, but
