System is completely up-to-date using RHN as of Dec 20, 2002. All available components of RH 8.0 professional were installed and have been updated using RHN. Could you attach a sample file to reproduce this problem? I don't know what file I would send, since namazu is apparently finding errors in the template files, which are exactly what anaconda installed from the distribution disk. I think the problem is locale-related. mknmz works fine on the RH 7.2 machine with en_US.iso885915. It crashes on RH 8.0 with en_US.UT_8, reporting malformed UTF-8 characters (apparently in the namazu templates). In other words, I think there is something going wrong in the multi-language support, and/or the namazu templates were created assuming a different locale. RH took away the locale chooser GUI, so I am currently fumbling around to see if I can change the locale to en_US.iso885915. The problem is with Perl, not with Namazu LC_ALL=en_US.ISO8859-1 export LC_ALL as suggested in man perllocale allows namazu to run (apparently correctly). It's still grinding away, and it will take a while to finish. When it has run to completion and is apparently producing correct results, I'll close out the report. should be fixed in 2.0.12-5. |
