Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): coreutils-8.15-8.fc18 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Call following commands with LC_ALL=C and LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8 locales a) echo -n -e "aaa\naaa\n" | uniq -s1 b) echo -n -e "baa\naaa\n" | uniq -s1 c) echo -n -e "aaa\naaa\n" | uniq -s1 -- d) echo -n -e "baa\naaa\n" | uniq -s1 -- Actual results: Results are different (or command fails) Expected results: Results should be same Additional info: mistakes found after applying attached patch (it adds multibyte tests for utilities cut, expand, fold, join, pr, sort, unexpand, uniq)
Created attachment 584158 [details] patch adding multi-byte functionality tests
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle. Changing version to '19'. (As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.) More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora19
Jaromir Koncicky checked the failures, these mentioned in description are no longer failing, other failures in cut/uniq are caused by different "'" character in multibyte/singlebyte version of uniq and in obsolete syntax check. I think there is nothing to fix atm, closing NOTABUG.
