Summary: glibc or perl incorrect locale LC_CTYPE data https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=166478 ------- Additional Comments From kas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 2005-11-02 05:30 EST ------- Well, then tell me why the same Perl works on FreeBSD. Is it that Linux UTF-8 locales does not consider U+00C1 to be a character, while U+10C is a character? Your statement that "\w matches any ASCII word char" is not true. See perlre(1): [...] If "use locale" is in effect, the list of alpha- betic characters generated by "\w" is taken from the current locale. See perllocale. [...] So the question is why Perl (or libc) in FreeBSD does consider U+00C1 to be a character under the UTF-8 locale, while the same perl with glibc on Linux doesn't. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
