Added patch to open /usr/share/gv/GV. I'm not opposed to mucking with GV.fallbackPageMedia if you sent a script that would parse 'local -c LC_PAPER' appropriately. > I'm not opposed to mucking with GV.fallbackPageMedia if you sent a script ...
sz=($(locale -c LC_PAPER)); [ "${sz[1]}" = 279 ] && echo Letter || echo A4
or, if you want to avoid arrays,
sz=$(a="$(locale -c LC_PAPER)"; echo $a | (read b a b ; echo $a))
[ "$sz" = 279 ] && echo Letter || echo A4
I am not sure if this is worth the bother. Most documents will have
a bounding box anyway and this will be used.

Description of problem: Looking at a strace of a gv startup one can see there: open("/usr/share/gv", O_RDONLY) = 4 fstat(4, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 read(4, 0x554b40, 4096) = -1 EISDIR (Is a directory) close(4) = 0 The context would indicate that really /usr/share/gv/GV is wanted here. Otherwise we rely on compiled in defaults for various settings. It would be even nicer if GV.fallbackPageMedia would change to 'A4' or 'Letter' depending on what 'locale -c LC_PAPER' has to say but maybe this is asking too much. :-) Not of a vital importance anyway.
