https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=275364 --- Comment #5 from Joshua Kinard <freebsd@kumba.dev> --- (In reply to Craig Leres from comment #4) I don't see any patches for portconfig in the main ports tree, even in the official cgit repository. I made that patch myself, so am curious what you're seeing and where? Is your issue that when running 'make config', the UI gets drawn using letters/numbers instead of box-drawing characters? I use either ISO-8859-1 or ISO-8859-15 for locale in most of my connections to my home systems running FreeBSD, and only switch to UTF-8 when absolutely needed. If in either ISO-8859-* locale, without my patch, 'make config' cannot properly draw the curses-based UI; it's just garbled instead because the character mappings aren't right. If I use UTF8, it works fine, but I don't like some of the non-ASCII characters (like smart quotes) in build logs, so I stick to non-UTF8 locales. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.home | help
