Created attachment 892339 [details] Fix rpm --last sorting with some non-en locales The attached (oneliner) patch fix the following issue: On some locales (e.g: french), sort interprets the space character as a thousands separator. As a result, digit(s) at the beginning of package names (e.g: '0' for 0ad), are merged with package installation timestamp and the output of rpm -qa --last is wrong. For instance, the following list: 1398777401 0ad-0.0.15-3.fc20.x86_64 1397901236 kernel-3.13.10-200.fc20.x86_64 1399198174 kernel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64 is sorted like this: 1398777401 0ad-0.0.15-3.fc20.x86_64 1399198174 kernel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64 1397901236 kernel-3.13.10-200.fc20.x86_64 instead of: 1399198174 kernel-3.14.2-200.fc20.x86_64 1398777401 0ad-0.0.15-3.fc20.x86_64 1397901236 kernel-3.13.10-200.fc20.x86_64 This patch ensures that the space character is not interpreted as a thousands separator anymore by setting the environment variable LC_NUMERIC to C locale for numeric sorts.
