/etc/profile.d/libglib2.csh broken in latest glib2

wirelessmc · 09-05-2021, 06:20 PM

The latest glib2 upgrade causes an Ambiguous output redirect error when attempting to login with csh/tcsh. This took quite a bit of digging to find this. In below /etc/profile.d/libglib2.csh script the offending line I am pretty sure is the redirect for locale charmap >2

For now I have reverted to the old libglib2.csh script but this should be fixed to adhere to csh/tcsh standards.

Code:

#!/bin/csh
#
# Description:  This script sets the environment variables G_FILENAME_ENCODING
# and G_BROKEN_FILENAMES for the glib-2.0 library.
#
# G_FILENAME_ENCODING
#       This environment variable can be set to a comma-separated list of
#       character set names.  GLib assumes that filenames are encoded in the
#       first character set from that list rather than in UTF-8.  The special
#       token "@locale" can be used to specify the character set for the
#       current locale.
#
# G_BROKEN_FILENAMES
#       If this environment variable is set, GLib assumes that filenames are
#       in the locale encoding rather than in UTF-8.

# Determine if the locale is UTF-8:
locale charmap 2> /dev/null | grep -q UTF-8
if ($status == 0) then
  setenv G_FILENAME_ENCODING "@locale"
endif

# It doesn't hurt to export this since G_FILENAME_ENCODING takes priority
# over G_BROKEN_FILENAMES:
setenv G_BROKEN_FILENAMES 1

This has been fixed. Now:

Code:

#!/bin/csh
#
# Description:  This script sets the environment variables G_FILENAME_ENCODING
# and G_BROKEN_FILENAMES for the glib-2.0 library.
#
# G_FILENAME_ENCODING
#       This environment variable can be set to a comma-separated list of
#       character set names.  GLib assumes that filenames are encoded in the
#       first character set from that list rather than in UTF-8.  The special
#       token "@locale" can be used to specify the character set for the
#       current locale.
#
# G_BROKEN_FILENAMES
#       If this environment variable is set, GLib assumes that filenames are
#       in the locale encoding rather than in UTF-8.

# Determine if the locale is UTF-8:
locale charmap | grep -q UTF-8
if ($status == 0) then
  setenv G_FILENAME_ENCODING "@locale"
endif

# It doesn't hurt to export this since G_FILENAME_ENCODING takes priority
# over G_BROKEN_FILENAMES:
setenv G_BROKEN_FILENAMES 1

  kernel. Thanks to nobodino and SeB.
ap/vim-8.2.3394-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
l/glib2-2.68.4-x86_64-2.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Better detect UTF-8 locales in libglib2.sh and libglib2.csh.
  Thanks to Didier Spaier.
