From 42953535686f7a8ed4dc250d9c87187c20462c1f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: R David Murray Date: Sat, 18 Jan 2014 14:56:10 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] #19855: restore use of LC_ALL, not LC_MESSAGES I didn't realize LC_ALL was an override, and I should have. I tried to make a test, but it is not clear that the LC variables actually affect the strings that uuid is using to parse the command output. --- Lib/uuid.py | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/Lib/uuid.py b/Lib/uuid.py index 7705a8ad409..9946042c298 100644 --- a/Lib/uuid.py +++ b/Lib/uuid.py @@ -321,9 +321,9 @@ def _find_mac(command, args, hw_identifiers, get_index): return None try: - # LC_MESSAGES to get English output, 2>/dev/null to + # LC_ALL to ensure English output, 2>/dev/null to # prevent output on stderr - cmd = 'LC_MESSAGES=C %s %s 2>/dev/null' % (executable, args) + cmd = 'LC_ALL=C %s %s 2>/dev/null' % (executable, args) with os.popen(cmd) as pipe: for line in pipe: words = line.lower().split()
