Status: Closed Resolution: Wont Fix Priority: 5 Submitted By: Greg Ward (gward) Assigned to: Greg Ward (gward) Summary: test_locale fails on IRIX 6.5

Initial Comment: Built Python 2.2a1 on a 64-bit SGI box running IRIX 6.5. test_locale fails as follows:

$ ./python Lib/test/test_locale.py '%f' % 1024 =? '1,024.000000' ... no '%f' % 1024 == '1024.000000' != '1,024.000000' '%f' % 102 =? '102.000000' ... yes '%f' % -42 =? '-42.000000' ... yes '%+f' % -42 =? '-42.000000' ... yes '%20.f' % -42 =? ' -42' ... yes '%+10.f' % -4200 =? ' -4,200' ... no '%+10.f' % -4200 == ' -4200' != ' -4,200' '%-10.f' % 4200 =? '4,200 ' ... no '%-10.f' % 4200 == '4200 ' != '4,200 '

I'm happy to take Martin's word on this -- closing this bug with "Won't fix".

This is a bug in the system C library, which fails to report proper separators in the en_US locale. Please complain to your operating system vendor; I propose to close this as "Won't fix".
