My system is localized with french canadian language. You could test gwave after changing your localization (but this would necessitate some package fetching and installing). How does the LC_NUMERIC switch works? I believe the "keyword" for french localization is fr_CA.
So this would be like LC_NUMERIC=fr_CA, but I don't know if this would work. In french, we do use ',' instead of '.' as the decimal point specifier. So you seem right about the problem cause. I have included a new screenshot displaying the behavior of the unpatched gwave on my system, when I try to plot the initial data.out file posted above. ** Attachment added: "The behavior of gwave on a french canadian localized system when plotting ascii data" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35768217/unpatched%20gwave%20%28displaying%20data.out%29.png -- Gwave runs but doesn't plot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/482748 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
