#43617: texinfo: texi2dvi incompatible with bsdsed ----------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: ionic@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Port: texinfo | ----------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by ionic@…): I'm just not sure what to do with that. Sure, `texi2dvi` fails with `bsdsed` and it doesn't with `gnused`. But does this mean, that it is a texinfo bug? The baseline is `bsdsed` as shipped by Apple failing when being run on any input containing non-ASCII characters. To make matters even more complicated: it fails only when `LC_CTYPE` is set to any UTF-8 locale. Running `LC_CTYPE=C LANG=C texi2dvi --pdf --batch foo.texi` works fine. So... I guess `texi2dvi` needs some more code to detect the input file's charset and and change the `LC_CTYPE` and `LANG` environment variables accordingly to some locale supporting the detected charset... but does that make sense? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/43617#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
