pkgtool: problems with view and remove
Hi to all,
I have just solved a problem with the displaying of files and directories with ntfs-3g (http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...tfs-3g-661133/), but now a more serious problem is introduced. Pkgtool doesn't work as expected, the option View and Remove no longer work. If I decide to use View from KDE Konsole, it remains a black screen and does nothing. If I run it before starting the X server, remains the blinking cursor and does nothing. If you use Remove it displays immediately the following message: Code:
------PACKAGE REMOVAL COMPLETE------- No such package: Error:. Can't remove. No such package: Expected. Can't remove. No such package: 4. Can't remove. No such package: arguments,. Can't remove. No such package: found. Can't remove. No such package: only. Can't remove. No such package: 2.. Can't remove. No such package: Use. Can't remove. No such package: --help. Can't remove. No such package: to. Can't remove. No such package: list. Can't remove. No such package: options.. Can't remove. The strange fact is that if I change the language settings in files /etc/profile.d/lang.csh and /etc/profile.d/lang.sh setting setenv LANG it_IT instead of setenv LANG it_IT.utf8, pkgtool works perfectly. So, I have two options: 1) I choose to see properly file names and directories, but pkgtool doesn't work as expected 2) pkgtool works perfectly, but I can't see properly file names and directories Which option would you choose? :D Obviously I choose the first option, but the doubt comes me that can be a bug of pkgtool, similar to this bug: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hlight=pkgtool. In fact it seems absurd that you have to use a localization as simple as it_IT (which doesn't write all the characters), instead of using it_IT.utf8 as it happens in the others distros. According to you is it the case to report it to Patrick? Thanks for the help, Scorpion77 |
Does removepkg work as expected?

Scorpion77, so you use the C shell instead of Bash ?
I think it is a Locale issue indeed, from your report dunno what is it, maybe a basic syntax error on shell init files ? Could you post /etc/profile.d/lang.csh & /etc/profile.d/lang.sh ? |

#!/bin/sh I already created an alias in .bashrc for convenience. :) |

But out of curiousity, if you use csh shell, why do you edit your .bashrc file or if you use bash shell, why do you edit /etc/profile.d/lang.csh ? |
