Changing that setting in your shell will probably also make nfsref work. I think we want to replace the failing logic with just this: setlocale(LC_ALL, ""); and we'll have to hit pretty much all of the command line tools in fedfs-utils. Can you identify an i18n expert at RH who can help us determine what is the correct method for ensuring UTF-8 string processing will work independent of locale setting? Definitely broken, I'm doing some research for a long-term fix. Possible workaround is setting your LANG variable, as above. Look for fedfs-utils-0.9.1 in the next few days. fedfs-utils 0.9.1 was published today, which should address this issue. fedfs-utils-0.9.1-1.fc19 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 19. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/fedfs-utils-0.9.1-1.fc19 Package fedfs-utils-0.9.1-1.fc19: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 19 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing fedfs-utils-0.9.1-1.fc19' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2013-11459/fedfs-utils-0.9.1-1.fc19 then log in and leave karma (feedback). fedfs-utils-0.9.1-1.fc19 has been pushed to the Fedora 19 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
