The "distrib-dirs" target in src/src/Makefile which is run as the first step of installworld should have taken care of creating /usr/share/nls/C, at least I wasn't able to reproduce any problem here. The only way I could have made it break is to have /usr/share/nls/C symlinked to some nonexistent filename. But you say there was no 'C' entry at all... Anyway, a complete "installworld" output would help narrow this problem down. If not, there's nothing to discuss in this thread anymore. Cheers, -- Ruslan Ermilov ru_at_FreeBSD.org FreeBSD committer
