Hi,
I found that the locale environment in FBSD-2.1.5-R
has become non-functional for e.g. german LANG
-- at least when newly installed.
One can see from /cdrom/dists/bin/bin.??, e.g.
drwxr-xr-x bin/bin 0 Jul 17 04:03 1996 usr/share/locale/de_DE.ISO_8859-1/
lrwxr-xr-x bin/bin 0 Jul 17 04:09 1996 usr/share/locale/de -> de_DE.ISO_8859-1
But the directories never get filled.
It should be (as in 2.1.0-R)
lrwxr-xr-x bin/bin 0 Nov 16 10:40 1995 usr/share/locale/de_DE.ISO_8859-1 -> lt_LN.ISO_8859-1
The following script will fix this (run as root, of course :-)
It doesn't do any error checking, so check yourself that
the situation applies to you.
