#25733: nvi-1.81.6: message catalog not configured correctly ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: allbery.b@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Low | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.1 Keywords: | Port: nvi ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ On startup, nex/nvi in a default OSX Terminal environment will print {{{ ./en_US.UTF-8: No such file or directory }}} This involves two bugs: (1) "set msgcat" defaults to "./" instead of "/opt/local/share/nvi/catalog/", which is where its message catalogs live; (2) the default $LANG is en_US.UTF-8, but the catalog installed with nvi is called "english" and lacks symlinks to any usual locale values on OSX. If I change "set msgcat" and add a symlink from "english" to "en_US.UTF-8" then the error doesn't occur and the message catalog is found and used. I am not sure if this is an OSX-specific problem; I've never seen it on Linux but don't know if it's using what on OSX appears to be its own message catalogs or something more Linux-standard. nex/nvi functions fine even if the message catalog isn't loaded, but of course will not be properly localized. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/25733> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

The exact same message does appear on Linux. I'd check which version of the db4 library you're using and what your $LANG is set to. If $LANG is unset, you won't see the message. I do agree with the original reporter that this is a complicated bug. The i18n message catalogs aren't set up right. Rather than try it figure out how to fix the catalog mess and standardize it correctly, I took the other approach and just fixed msg_open() so that if the db_open() call fails, db4 doesn't output the error message to stderr. The patch is logically dependent on the patch I made up for nvi in #22228. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/25733#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
