Bug#310550: locales: locale-gen fails (cannot lock with user-space NFS server)

[Rolf Leggewie <debian-bugs@rolf.leggewie.biz>]

Package: locales
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-21
Followup-For: Bug #310550

Lars and Masanori,

thank you for your answers.  I first tried the suggested mount option 
"nolock" but without any change in the result.  Then I investigated the 
locking on the NFS server and found that the user-space NFS server does 
not provide this.  I remember explicitly using user-space instead of 
kernel-space because of problems with exporting /dir with default 
settings and /dir/usr with option no-root-squash.  The kernel-nfs server 
would complain about an "invalid argument" so I switched to the 
user-space NFS daemon as suggested in IRC.  I guess, right now I am SOL.

Best regards

Rolf
