From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.77 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.2-2 i686) Description of problem: New RedHat 7.1 installation with locale set to "pl_PL". Printing to remote queue on Solaris 2.6 server fails - there is core dump in Solaris spool directory left and some control files as well which cause Solaris tools like lpstat to dump core when invoked. The problem doesn't exist when printing daemon on RH workstation is invoked with locale set to "C". The fault doesn't depend on setting strict RFC1179 compliance checkbox. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just print to a queue located on Sparc Solaris 2.6 box. 2. 3. Additional info:
I just tried it one more time and must say that I was wrong. It doesn't seem to be related to locale setting as fault occurs with locale set to "C", "en", "en_US" and "pl_PL". Sorry for introducing false lead.
Do you happen to know if Red Hat Linux 7.2 has the same problem, in the same situation?
Unfortunately I don't know. I can try to find out but not earlier then in five weeks time. My guess is that the problem is related to locale seting (even if I retracted it) - probably the offendig one is LC_NUMERIC which introduces commas as tenth separator instead of more American dot. And as I know 7.2 sets filter locales to C so probably it is already fixed.
Closing.
