Description Thomas Moschny 2005-08-16 20:50:16 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.4; Linux) KHTML/3.4.2 (like Gecko)

Description of problem:
The completion script /usr/share/zsh/4.2.1/functions/_subversion parses the  
output of 'svn help' and 'svnadmin help'. In an environment with  
LC_MESSAGES != C or en_US or similar, parsing will fail.  

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
zsh-4.2.1-2

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set LC_MESSAGES e.g. to de_DE.  
2. Start a new zsh, verify the value of LC_MESSAGES with the 'locale' cmd.  
3. At the prompt, enter svn <SPACE> and press <TAB>.  
  

Actual Results:  Strange completion suggestions are displayed.

Comment 2 Christopher Aillon 2006-09-16 22:13:51 UTC 
This seems to be fixed in the current version in rawhide.  The code sets
LC_ALL=C before calling any svn commands.
