Re: locale and prelink failure

There is possibly an update of the prelink package neseccary.

I tried to solve the problem with a downgrade of glibc, gcc, and gcc-libs but this lead to a system that was not bootable anymore! (I had to restore the packages above via chroot...)

Re: locale and prelink failure

Have you tried removing all prelinking from binaries first?

Re: locale and prelink failure

As a (termporary) workaround you can do the following:

 sudo LANG="en_DE.UTF-8"  /usr/bin/prelink -amfR  

You may replace the string between the quotes (" ") with your desired locale.

P.S.: LANG="en_US.UTF-8" seems to cause the problem and is not working.

Re: locale and prelink failure

I have the same problem, but with pandoc:

# pandoc                                                                                                                   134 
pandoc: loadlocale.c:131: _nl_intern_locale_data: Assertion `cnt < (sizeof (_nl_value_type_LC_COLLATE) / sizeof (_nl_value_type_LC_COLLATE[0]))' failed.
zsh: abort (core dumped)  pandoc

LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" does not help, either:

LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" pandoc                                                                                                139 
pandoc: loadlocale.c:131: _nl_intern_locale_data: Assertion `cnt < (sizeof (_nl_value_type_LC_COLLATE) / sizeof (_nl_value_type_LC_COLLATE[0]))' failed.
zsh: abort (core dumped)  LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" pandoc

Re: locale and prelink failure

Do you have your locale selected in /etc/locale.gen?  Did it regenerate after updating to glibc-2.22 (check pacman.log).

Re: locale and prelink failure

Yes:

# grep -v ^# /etc/locale.gen
de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8  
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 

Did it regenerate after updating to glibc-2.22 (check pacman.log).

Yes:

[2015-08-12 12:37] [ALPM] upgraded glibc (2.21-4 -> 2.22-1)
[2015-08-12 12:37] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] Generating locales...

[2015-08-12 12:37] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] Generation complete.

The same problem is also discussed here, also without solution.
