Package: cupsys-client
Version: 1.1.23-10sarge1
Severity: normal


Hallo,

I have a HP DeskJet 670C connected to the parallel port and using it
with cupsys/foomatic/hpijs. I can use my printer from various sources so
it is configuered ok.

However, showing the queue with "lpstat -o" or "lpstat -t" gives invalid
output. This is locale dependent. The output is the locale en_US is
wrong. The output is correct in the locale C nl_NL de_DE.

I think it is some kind of stack problem because the output different
for different calls of the command.

Here are the commands I used:

PC-Vincent:535$ locale
LANG=en_US
LC_CTYPE="en_US"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US"
LC_TIME="en_US"
LC_COLLATE="en_US"
LC_MONETARY="en_US"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US"
LC_PAPER="en_US"
LC_NAME="en_US"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US"
LC_ALL=
