System: NetBSD rover 1.3E NetBSD 1.3E (MARC) #49: Sat May 30 22:53:28 EDT 1998 marc@rover:/u3/netbsd/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/MARC i386
>Description:
The locale internationalization code uses the LANG env var to
determine which language to display error messages in
(lib/libc/local/setlocale.c).
distrib/utils/sysinst/Makefile.inc uses the LANG env var to determine
which language files to build the menus with.
These uses conflict.
>How-To-Repeat:
setenv LANG C
cd /src/distrib/i386/floppies
make
>Fix:
rename LANG in distrib/utils/sysinst/Makefile.inc to something else.
