Okay, so Debian GNU is our Subversion Server - I can test that too.
On the Debian OS, I set 'LANG=en_US' and then execute 'svnversion' and I
get the following error:
svnversion: error: cannot set LC_CTYPE locale
svnversion: error: environment variable LANG is en_US
Without LANG being defined, there is no error executing 'svnversion'.
We are using Subversion 0.37 right now at this moment on the server, so
I could not test this for release 1.1. We have the System OS maintained
through packages.
If we have the locale set up incorrectly, then it is wrong for all three
systems: Mac OS X 10.2.8, Fedora Core 2 Linux, Debian GNU Linux 2.4.21 .
And they are not hacked up OS's.
So you tell me, is my locale not set up correctly?
Why is this error being received executing 'svnversion' when the
environment variable LANG is set? And the error is not received when
LANG is not set?
