With a Chinese default locale, you probably have a lot more experience with all this, but I do not understand. Lintian does not use en_US.UTF-8 but C.UTF-8. [1]
I can reproduce this bug in my test server. My notebook use zh_CN.UTF-8 locale, ssh to the test server. 1. The test server has not any other locale except default. 2. I also already apt purge locale package on test server. 3. The ssd_config of the test server has the following config to accept my notebook locale zh_CN.UTF-8 : # Allow client to pass locale environment variables AcceptEnv LANG LC_* ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- atzlinux@hwymini:~$ locale -a locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_COLLATE to default locale: No such file or directory C C.UTF-8 POSIX atzlinux@hwymini:~$ locale locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8 LANGUAGE= LC_CTYPE="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_TIME="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_NAME="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_ALL= atzlinux@hwymini:~$ LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 atzlinux@hwymini:~$ locale locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8 LANGUAGE= LC_CTYPE="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_TIME="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_NAME="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="zh_CN.UTF-8" LC_ALL= atzlinux@hwymini:~$ MANROFFSEQ='' MANWIDTH=80 man --warnings -E UTF-8 -l -Tutf8 -Z /usr/share/man/man1/ls.1.gz > /dev/null man: can't set the locale; make sure $LC_* and $LANG are correct -------------------------------- The same error infos display. -------------------------------- atzlinux@hwymini:~$ export LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 atzlinux@hwymini:~$ locale LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8 LANGUAGE= LC_CTYPE="C.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="C.UTF-8" LC_TIME="C.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="C.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="C.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="C.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="C.UTF-8" LC_NAME="C.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="C.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="C.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="C.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="C.UTF-8" LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 atzlinux@hwymini:~$ MANROFFSEQ='' MANWIDTH=80 man --warnings -E UTF-8 -l -Tutf8 -Z /usr/share/man/man1/ls.1.gz > /dev/null atzlinux@hwymini:~$ --------------------------------- There is not errors after export. So,my question is: Is the "LC_ALL=C.UTF-8" export to forked bash child process that run man check? -------- BTW, "You could not reproduce the error in Docker locally with the Salsa CI Lintian image—and your host uses the default localeen_US.UTF-8. " I think is that the screen output of console running Docker inherit theen_US.UTF-8locale from your host, you may run locale to see the LANG in Docker. Is iten_US.UTF-8? I guess the Dcoker can useen_US.UTF-8locale come from your host, even the Docker itself has not theen_US.UTF-8locale produced. Thanks! xiao sheng wen
