Available locales in a buildd
Hello.
I'm looking at some of the reasons packages do not build reproducibly,
and one of them is different locale settings.
Let's say that I want to ensure that some UTF-8 locale is available
during the build. It seems my options are the following:
* Add a "Build-Depends: locales-all"
The locales-all package is very big, but I guess it would work.
* Use the trick in the apertium packages, namely:
override_dh_auto_build:
mkdir -p debian/tmp/locale/
localedef -f UTF-8 -i en_US ./debian/tmp/locale/en_US.UTF-8/
export LOCPATH=$(CURDIR)/debian/tmp/locale/ && \
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 && \
dh_auto_build
Any other way?
Thanks.
