rpmlint uses the following: >>> import locale >>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_COLLATE, '') Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/lib64/python3.7/locale.py", line 604, in setlocale return _setlocale(category, locale) locale.Error: unsupported locale setting The git blame for the call is rather big commit: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpmlint/commit/115d640c8d0b13b70d464a25a3401a7011cd369c LC_COLLATE is for sorting things. Yet the empty call makes it sort based on env variables, e.g. on my machine, this is what I get: >>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_COLLATE, '') 'cs_CZ.utf8' So if I run mock this is what rpmlint is trying to set, installing English locales won't help me: $ locale LANG=cs_CZ.utf8 ... LC_COLLATE="cs_CZ.utf8" ... LC_ALL= [FedoraReview (python3)]$ mock -r fedora-rawhide-x86_64 shell <mock-chroot> sh-5.0# locale 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_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory LANG=cs_CZ.utf8 ... LC_COLLATE="cs_CZ.utf8" ... LC_ALL= So I guess we need to figure out what is this line actually trying to achieve. So the git blame is actually https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpmlint/commit/6f4af3cd65b0ccdab7455e3fbe8ff9947b979d39 Process installed packages matched by a wildcard in locale's alphabetic order. I'll open an issue upstream. rpmlint-1.10-22.fc30 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 30. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-5758e738d2 rpmlint-1.10-22.fc30 has been pushed to the Fedora 30 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for instructions on how to install test updates. You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-5758e738d2 rpmlint-1.10-22.fc30 has been pushed to the Fedora 30 stable repository.

Description of problem: I installed some newly built packages into a mock root, along with rpmlint, then ran mock --shell so I could check the packages. In the mock shell: # rpmlint <list of packages> Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/rpmlint", line 378, in <module> main() File "/usr/bin/rpmlint", line 92, in main locale.setlocale(locale.LC_COLLATE, '') File "/usr/lib64/python3.7/locale.py", line 604, in setlocale return _setlocale(category, locale) locale.Error: unsupported locale setting I exited out of the mock shell, installed glibc-langpack-en, and restarted the shell. Then rpmlint worked. Either rpmlint should be made to work with the C locale, or it should Requires something to satisfy its need for a locale. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rpmlint-1.10-20.fc30.noarch How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start with an empty mock chroot 2. Install rpmlint 3. Install any package that does not require a langpack 4. Start a mock shell 5. Run rpmlint on the package installed in step 3 Actual results: The traceback shown above. Expected results: Valid rpmlint output. Additional info:
