Bug#225602: apt: apt-get: encoding problems (when displaying strings)?
Package: apt
Version: 0.5.17
Severity: normal
: tfheen@yiwaz ~ > apt-get update
E: Kunne ikke �pne l�sfil /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Ikke tilgang)
E: Ute av stand til � l�se listemappen
: tfheen@yiwaz ~ > locale
LANG=no_NO
LC_CTYPE="no_NO"
LC_NUMERIC="no_NO"
LC_TIME="no_NO"
LC_COLLATE="no_NO"
LC_MONETARY="no_NO"
LC_MESSAGES="no_NO"
LC_PAPER="no_NO"
LC_NAME="no_NO"
LC_ADDRESS="no_NO"
LC_TELEPHONE="no_NO"
LC_MEASUREMENT="no_NO"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="no_NO"

: tfheen@yiwaz ~ >
So, apt does something weird with the strings it outputs -- the
abovementioned message should have read
E: Kunne ikke åpne låsfil /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Ikke tilgang)
E: Ute av stand til å låse listemappen
When running with LANG unset, everything is fine:
: tfheen@yiwaz ~ > LANG= apt-get update
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
E: Unable to lock the list directory
: tfheen@yiwaz ~ >
(Yes, I'm not root, but that shouldn't matter on the output encoding :)
