the commands are for tcsh, but even with bash
unset ${!LC_*} LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 xdvi
it works. Maybe I should note that I've have always an encoding.dir as well as fonts.dir and fonts.scale below *all* subdirectories /usr/share/fonts/ as well as fonts.alias for the subdirectories of the x11 fonts packages.
It's really crazy: Using unset ${!LC_*} LANG=de_DE.UFT-8 xdvi file.dvi works despite of the message "Warning: locale not supported by C library, locale unchanged", too, but plain "xdvi file.dvi" does not (usual messages). And to top all that: $LANG is "de_DE.UTF-8"! Doing more tests, I found that "LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 xdvi ..." triggers the problem when all other language variables are unset. If I use "LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 xdvi ..." it does NOT work, but when I use (illegal?) "LC_CTYPE=xx_XX.UTF-8 xdvi ..." it works!!! What works too is "LC_CTYPE=de_DE.iso8859-1 xdvi ..." Sorry, I cannot make any sense from all this! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
