I do not know if this was happing before yet recently I discovered that sometimes I am loosing my locale settings when I have more then 2 Xterms opened. The weird thing is it does not happen always
SuSE 8.1 Kernel k_deflt-2.4.19-74 Windowmaker (WindowMaker-0.80.2-1 from Mike Fabian's directory)
I have the locale settings in $HOME/.profile as
export LANG=tr_TR.UTF-8 export LC_MESSAGES=en_US export LC_TIME=POSIX export LC_COLLATE=tr_TR.UTF-8
I am using "utf8xterm" which comes with shtools-2002.01.30-117. So When I have the Xterm for the first time the locale is toganm@earth:~> locale LANG=tr_TR.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE="tr_TR.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="tr_TR.UTF-8" LC_TIME=POSIX LC_COLLATE=tr_TR.UTF-8 LC_MONETARY="tr_TR.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES=en_US LC_PAPER="tr_TR.UTF-8" LC_NAME="tr_TR.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="tr_TR.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="tr_TR.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="tr_TR.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="tr_TR.UTF-8" LC_ALL=
When I encounter the problem of loosing locales the output is like this
LANG=tr_TR LC_CTYPE="tr_TR" LC_NUMERIC="tr_TR" LC_TIME=POSIX LC_COLLATE=tr_TR.UTF-8 LC_MONETARY="tr_TR" LC_MESSAGES=en_US LC_PAPER="tr_TR" LC_NAME="tr_TR" LC_ADDRESS="tr_TR" LC_TELEPHONE="tr_TR" LC_MEASUREMENT="tr_TR" LC_IDENTIFICATION="tr_TR" LC_ALL=
I have no idea whatsoever how come the locales change does anybody have ?
This should be fixed in the WindowMaker packages distributed with SuSE
Linux 8.2. Togan was so kine to file a bug report in the SuSE bugzilla
and Vladimir Nadvornik fixed the problem.
Updated WindowMaker packages for SuSE 8.1 which should not have this
bug are here:
