[ruby-core:74075] [Ruby trunk Bug#12127][Feedback] LANG environment is not respected

[duerst]

Issue #12127 has been updated by Martin Dürst.

Status changed from Open to Feedback

Can you explain what the problem is with

$ LANG=en_US.utf-8 ruby -e "puts ''.encoding"
US-ASCII

As far as I understand, strings with an encoding of US-ASCII can be used wherever an UTF-8 string can be used, so this shouldn't create any new errors.

[ruby-core:74078] [Ruby trunk Bug#12127] LANG environment is not respected

[naruse]

Issue #12127 has been updated by Yui NARUSE.


I can't reproduce it.
Could you show `ruby/ruby -ve "p Encoding.find('locale');puts ''.encoding"`?

[ruby-core:74098] [Ruby trunk Bug#12127][Third Party's Issue] LANG environment is not respected

$ ruby -ve "p Encoding.find('locale');puts ''.encoding"

#<Encoding:US-ASCII>
US-ASCII

Actually, I suspect this my have something to do with recent changes in packaging of glibc in Fedora [1]. I don't have any locales installed, except the default C.UTF-8, which works just fine:

~~~
$ LANG=C.UTF-8 ruby -e "puts ''.encoding"
UTF-8
~~~

If I install all langpacks, the command above works just fine. So it is likely third party issue. I guess that Ruby probably cannot respect just the UTF-8 part ....
