This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated in the current release, Red Hat is unable to address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. I am still seeing this in RHEL 6.6 - are we still considering an implementation of this to deal with the warning messages?

I am seeing this on 6.6, too. Also, the following RH documentation states that there should be KOI8 packages for RHEL6 (which I suspect could solve the problem) but I cannot find them: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html-single/6.5_Technical_Notes/ So where are they? Any updates on this? Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 is in the Production 3 Phase. During the Production 3 Phase, Critical impact Security Advisories (RHSAs) and selected Urgent Priority Bug Fix Advisories (RHBAs) may be released as they become available. The official life cycle policy can be reviewed here: http://redhat.com/rhel/lifecycle This issue does not meet the inclusion criteria for the Production 3 Phase and will be marked as CLOSED/WONTFIX. If this remains a critical requirement, please contact Red Hat Customer Support to request a re-evaluation of the issue, citing a clear business justification. Note that a strong business justification will be required for re-evaluation. Red Hat Customer Support can be contacted via the Red Hat Customer Portal at the following URL: https://access.redhat.com/ |
Description of problem: When using LANG=en_US.UTF-8, xload prints warning messages: Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libX11-common-1.5.0-4.el6.noarch How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. export LANG=en_US.UTF-8 2. xload Actual results: Warnings are printed. xload runs and does displays a caption. Expected results: No warnings are printed. Also happens with other X11 programs (eg: xfontsel), and in other UTF-8 locales eg. LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 Additional info: Workaround 1: Use a different locale LANG=C xload Workaround 2: Edit /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/XLC_LOCALE and comment out fs6 { charset { name KOI8-R:GR } font { primary KOI8-R:GR } }
