[Bug 1352322] [NEW] gdebi FTBFS when the locale is not en_US

 

Public bug reported:

System: Xubuntu 14.04.
Current gdebi version: 0.9.5.3ubuntu2 (from trusty-updates).

Steps to reproduce:

1. Have some non-en_US locale currently set in your system. I have ru_RU for example.
2. sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev devscripts build-essential
3. sudo apt-get build-dep gdebi
4. apt-get source gdebi
5. cd gdebi-0.9.5.3ubuntu2
6. debuild -us -uc

The build process will fail as shown in the first attachment.

Now try the same with locale set to en_US (but do a cleanup first):

7. debuild clean
8. LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 debuild -us -uc

The build process will succeed as shown in the second attachment.
