[Bug 1300684] Re: locale-gen --purge stops after purging the locales
Redirecting the output to a file will cause the same result as redirecting it to /dev/null. In this case the output is "Generating locales...
de_AT.UTF-8... done
de_BE.UTF-8... done
de_CH.UTF-8... done
de_DE.UTF-8... done
de_LI.UTF-8... done
de_LU.UTF-8... done
en_US.UTF-8... done
Generation complete.
". Maybe you want to try the testcase as descibed in the startpost to see if you are able to reproduce this issue.

Title:
locale-gen --purge stops after purging the locales

Bug description:
I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 dev with locales 2.13+git20120306-12 and
upstart 1.12.1-0ubuntu1 and I have found a combination between locale-
gen and upstart to cause some weird behavior. Initially my locales are
looking this:
root@ubuntu:~# locale -a
C
C.UTF-8
de_AT.utf8
de_BE.utf8
de_CH.utf8
de_DE.utf8
de_LI.utf8
de_LU.utf8
en_US.utf8
POSIX
Here is an example script (stored in /etc/init/test.conf):
exec locale-gen --purge &
Here is the result:
root@ubuntu:~# start test && sleep 60 && locale -a
test stop/waiting
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
locale-gen has purged the locales but something has caused it to stop then. But if I'm forwarding stdout to /dev/null all is working fine. Here is the updated script:
exec locale-gen --purge > /dev/null &
And this is now the result:
root@ubuntu:~# start test && sleep 60 && locale -a
test stop/waiting
C
C.UTF-8
de_AT.utf8
de_BE.utf8
de_CH.utf8
de_DE.utf8
de_LI.utf8
de_LU.utf8
en_US.utf8
